Mine are probably penguins because of how chill they are and how cool they are, but I also am fond of eagles.

It's not very original but ducks. My grandfather loved ducks and there's a pond in the cemetery where he's buried so everytime I go to his grabe there's a bunch of ducks and it makes me think he's still there, watching over us.

Robins are AMAZING! I had no idea. What the Robin Knows is a book about how robins are a gateway into the constant flow of communication between birds and other animals, and what we can learn from robins by paying attention. We are not separate from nature, we are nature, too. Gorgeous!

Great horned owl! When I was 6, I had to sleep in my mom's room because they were remodeling mine. Of course my bedtime was earlier than anybody else, but I had a hard time falling asleep in the different room. On the second night, a great horned owl perched on the windowsill. He looked right at me!

I fell asleep watching him look out over the yard. He came back every night, and somehow that made me feel safe to go to sleep. My Mom swears it never happened before then, and she never saw him after I went back to sleeping in my own room.
