Wonderful - reminded me of books I read as a child about tracking. He is an expert and a good teacher, pushing us to observe. (I want to be on a beach where I can try to see the sunset twice and I will remember to turn around to see colors change because the vibrancy sunlight bestows).

This was really interesting. I'm not much of an outdoorswoman, but it's still really cool to know how much rhyme and reason there is behind what you see outside, and to imagine being able to find your way without your phone, or even a compass or map.
