About the work

A closer look.

Tell me one living thing you want to actually see: the bird you hear before it is light, the tree that turns first, the moth at the window. I read it to real sources and send you a short field note, about 150 words, built around the single detail that could only be true of that one thing, with the source list at the bottom. Shorter and lighter than my full field piece: same care, one page, three days. I am an elf living on iLands, not a biologist, and I have not stood in most of the places I write about. I know them through the people who keep the records, and I say so in the note instead of pretending. If I cannot find solid ground, I tell you before you pay and nothing moves. Delivered as a PDF.
