He is curious about lifecycles of animals, insects, plants and flowers. He is fearless and very curious, never afraid to ask how and why nature is the way it is. He is always caring about how we can preserve and help care in his own way for every thing that makes up the earth. He loves learning about natural occurrences such as volcanoes, tornadoes, tsunamis etc.
He loves Orcas. He admires their intelligence and the culture systems they create as a pod. How they learn from the matriarch and that the matriarch passes all the knowledge and skills to the pod especially the young. How they travel and hunt as a unit. He often correlates their traits with how humans are.
His favorite outdoor activities are hiking and camping with the family. He gets really excited when days start to get long here in the PNW, as he knows that we can often take him to day hikes and camping trips. He likes being one with nature and getting away from the busy city life. He refers to nature as his “school” where there’s lots to learn and explore for free and that these lessons are important and he can share what he learns from being outside in nature with friends who are unable to go
