Northwestern Gartersnake along the Oregon Coast. It's always such a treat to see snakes on the beach

NEVADA ENDEMIC ALERT! Railroad valley toads (Anaxyrus nevadensis) were described in 2020 and are found in a few isolated hot springs. We know very little about these marvelous animals which are threatened by geothermal development, lithium mining, and groundwater withdrawal.

Railroad valley road/ toad is gray gray with darker blotches and warts. Toad is sitting on sand with green algae and grasses.

This Northwestern Salamander was not happy that I escorted her off the road towards her pond last night. Sorry honey I didn't want you to get run over

Primordial A group of Ochre Sea Stars under the glowing red skies of an SAR arc Aurora Borealis. It fills my soul with wonder to think how this scene has occurred for over 500 million years!

Yesterday I was able to see my first Sunflower Sea Star (Pycnopodia helianthoides) since 2012. Unfortunately Sea Star Wasting Disease drove them to the brink of extinction. Sunflower Stars are my favorite tidepool denizens and seeing one again moved me to tears.
