Was exploring #BankheadNF on my birthday yesterday when I had the opportunity to help this beautiful Eastern box turtle female cross the road.

Morning! Day 2 of #BlackBotanistsWeek is focusing on #PlantInteractions . We're a bit later today because it's a cool morning and the pollinators get going when temperatures increase, like the monkey beetle on this Endangered Moraea tulbaghensis. redlist.sanbi.org/species.ph…

It's #BlackBotanistsWeek! I'm a plant ecophysiologist, PhD in training and a Science Educator at a forest. I study how trees respond to climate change physiologically! If trees can't adapt or migrate, they could become locally extinct! #botany101 #blackroots #blackbotanicallegacy
It's Black Botanists Week! Check out the schedule, follow along, share your love of plants, and celebrate diversity. #BlackBotanistsWeek #BlackInNature #RepresentationMatters

My mom never took us hiking since she didn't have that opportunity growing up-- I now know she loved the outdoors even back then but that she felt out of place hiking. My first hike was when I was 18 and I never looked back! #BlackHikersWeek #Blackpeoplewhohike #BlackinNature
