Today we have a Double Creature Feature of two different burrowing species, the Burrowing Owl and the North American River Otter (not a bird..sorry). Special thanks to my pals Tara, Tim, Jahquari and Bakari for being apart of this episode. *The otters were seen from a safe distance and were not disrupted by our excitement. *Graphic language

The one where I do some storytelling of who, what and when my passion for animals and nature was fostered and nurtured and how I was failed by the systems of racism that lead me to walk away from a dream career (but always landed me in the perfect spot to create this podcast). We also introduce our very first Creature Feature: The American Crow.
