REFLECTION QUESTIONAction Track: Healing & Renewal Explore My AreaHow can spending more time outdoors enhance your sense of place -- your deep knowledge of and appreciation for your surroundings?
Guiselle Vargas 4/16/2021 11:00 PMI have enjoyed bush walking during the last week. Sometimes as part of a group and others just exploring a new area. With my family, we joined a initiative of our council to participate in the Wild Pollinator Count- National Pollinators Week . So we looked for bees, butterflies, moths and other pollinators insects during our bushwalk and took photos of them. It was a very nice activity that my family want to keep. -
