Me, mountain biking at White Clay Creek State Park in Newark, Delaware

Hi, I'm Holly! I'm really into the outdoors. I suppose it was foreshadowing that I would become a nature-lover: I grew up on a street called Woodland Road! Perhaps love of my outdoor activities like biking (mountain and gravel), hiking, exploring, walking, skiing, kayaking and formerly running, playing soccer, tennis, and more has also led me to have a passion for other outdoor life forms: birds, animals, trees, pollinators, frogs, and flowers.

My goal for this blog is to help others who live nearby to understand and appreciate all the little things in the natural world of our backyards and neighborhoods. There's so much to learn and share, I'm not even sure where to begin, but I have to start somewhere! Let's see how I do over time. I hope you'll let me know if you enjoy what I share. 😊

P.S. I really like emojis, so they will make frequent appearances in my posts! 😉
