I learned about the success we can have if we work together to foster biodiversity and protect endangered species. Made me think anything is possible!
It took me back to my roots and reminded us that we can find joy in nature anywhere we want to look. A reminder that we can find nature anywhere we look for it.
I am inspired to make my environment as natural as possible, to be in the same habitat space with nature. I want to get more involved in activities around the city and I will look up more often!!
What did I love the most? Its reach– to see migration as a pattern, an activity through which more than birds move– and to ask questions about that. The making of connections between the human and the more than human. Four different encounters with the world– so lovely! The range of voices. Thanks to everyone!
We are so grateful for all you are doing for the birders, both backyard feeders and watchers. Thank you.
Ankur explained everything well and was very encouraging and inspiring. Andrés was very positive and enthusiastic and moderated the event well. I especially appreciated that it touched on ethical bird photography. Thank you so much!
