As John Burroughs said, “The place to observe nature is where you are.”

    And Happy New Year to you too, Matthew!

    Good to see that snail at the starting line – though I almost missed the message by its antenna (which I’m sure is the wrong word) – I just accidentally hit it right.

    1. Thank you, Elizabeth! They are antennae, and are, like most of the rest of snail anatomy, protean, expansive, contractive.
