THANKS FOR 2,000,000+ VIEWS

Happily retired and enjoying getting out and about in the countryside (mostly Ireland). Volunteer lizard surveyor, after seeing my first one in 2008, at the Giant's Causeway. Learning something new about nature almost every day!

“Nature is a language and every new fact one learns is a new word; but it is not a language taken to pieces and dead in the dictionary, but the language put together into a most significant and universal sense. I wish to learn this language--not that I may know a new grammar, but that I may read the great book which is written in that tongue.” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson
