TheNaturalist
I am a Master Naturalist, trained Wildlife Assistant,Published Writer and Poet, Artist. Photograher. I Kayak, Hike, and Volunteer.I was the #1 Expert on the Wildlife Forum of ASKME.com when it stopped that format.My goal to to help educate all age groups and answer questions on our Natural world. If you have a question or need assistance, my goal is to present you with information you can understand and use. Leading to a new appreciation and base knowledge of our wild side! I have had years of experience and a working knowledge of our Natural world. I have spent years answering phones at a Wildlife Hospital, doing Rescues, and Volunteering as a Wildlife Vet assist. So I have a pretty well rounded knowledge of whats going on out there! No question is insignificant-If you cared enough to ask-then you deserve an understandable answer.
