'I wish the world was twice as big - and half of it was still unexplored,' Sir David Attenborough once said. The knowledge-thirsty British wildlife filmmaker and naturalist turns 98 on May 8, 2024.

AJ Swezey here I’m 37 from Okanogan in Washington State. I’m a gun owner, God fearing, bleeding heart patriot, constitutional classical liberal, naturalist, working class hero. I voted for Trump last time around and am not this time around. #RKJ all the way.

«The natural world is the greatest source of excitement, of visual beauty, of intellectual interest. The greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living».

🍃 In my role as naturalist, I continue to study Takaani and make journal entries about her. This time, I thought she might have caught sight of me.

Happy birthday to the great broadcaster and naturalist David Attenborough, who celebrates his 98th birthday today. We’re celebrating with music from his ‘Blue Planet’ this morning on Classic FM Breakfast with Aled Jones. 🐬 🦭

Almost too much cuteness! Brand new Smooth-coated otter pups in urban Singapore. The next generation of an endangered species. Curious and playful, too old to sit still, too young to learn how to swim.

Meet Genevieve Wall, Nature Forward's new senior naturalist and newest Birdathon captain. Please consider making a gift to her team, Genevieve's Juncos, in support of Nature Forward's great mission work. Thank you!
