Friday Film:: Life Nature You
In the latest installment of Friday Film we look at a short film titled Life Nature You by Myles Thompson. This film reminds us that wildlife is everywhere, even in a small patch of lawn in a suburban yard. The filmmakers daughter discovered the tiny wildlife in her lawn and created a small nature reserve to protect the wildlife from the lawn mower. It’s a reminder that starting to realize the diversity in the smallest and most common of places can lead us to a wider understanding of the world and all of its ecosystems.

Precious, in a good way. My son found a hurt Monarch in the playground last week and he and his friend still talk about it.
