pickWhile the main focus is on how to draw animals, plants and landscapes (step by step instructions), the first 100 pages introduce the reader to writing about nature. The goal of nature journaling is to see, to remember and to stimulate curiosity, to move through the world with joy. Pay attention not only to the happenings in the natural world, but also to the happenings within you. Write with the goal of knowing yourself and the world better. 🥰
Anna40 I love this chapter about diagramming birdsong: “Close your eyes to help you focus on sound. Raise your hand in the air and “conduct” the bird as it sings, lifting your hand at high notes, lowering it at low notes, wriggling your fingers for a trill… then start to mimic the sound as best you can. Try to whistle or hum it. Put words or nonsense syllables to what you hear and “sing” along with the birds. ❤️ (edited) 7h
