AI summary · From the event listing

"It is warm behind the driftwood now, for the wind has gone with the geese. So would I—if I were the wind." ---- First published in 1949, Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac is a foundational text in wildlife ecology, envisioning and embracing an ethic that treats land not as a commodity but as a community of soil, water, plants, and animals. In three sections, the book gathers seasonal observations and contemplations of the flora and fauna in rural Wisconsin, informal essays made from his forty years of travel throughout America's wildernesses, and philosophical issues involved in wildlife conservation. Beloved for its description and evocation of the natural world, A Sand County Almanac remains a foundational text in environmental science and a national treasure. ---- And I'm not going to forget the Discord link for once: https://discord.gg/r6tCVezMPy
