    I retired from teaching in June 2023, and now I have time to pursue these latent interests. We live on 38 acres of mostly wooded, hilly land, and I am excited to intentionally plant a native garden with a water feature. The Merlin bird ID app has helped me identify SO MANY bird species as I walk the trails.

    1. My daughter inspired me to begin nature journaling. She and I share a love of birding, and she told me that nature journaling was awakening her creative side. I also feel that "nudge," so I signed up for the class. We live on 38 acres of wooded property. 2. I would like to use my nature journal as a record of observed species, and to practice my drawing/watercolor techniques. It will be fun to review my journals and notice seasonal patterns. 3. I might also record how I am feeling about the animals/plant life/fungi I'm observing/drawing. Being out in nature is a stress reliever for me.
