All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.
See also our Environment community, which is focused on weather, climate, climate change, and stuff like that.
(It's not mandatory, but we also encourage providing a description of your image(s) for accessibility purposes! See here for a more detailed explanation and advice on how best to do this.)

Was out in the garden planting some new things and transplanting others when one of the local pileated woodpeckers came to use my garden fork's handle as a perch and hang out for some fifteen minutes, even with me moving and working just a few feet away. They're usually into having more space between us, so it was an awesome experience.
Got buzzed a few times by some hummingbirds too - they can get aggressive when the flowers are late, and they'll fly close enough that you can feel the wake from their flight on your neck and face.
