Green Teacher 117 — Fall 2018

Many of us have experienced those mindful moments in nature that take us beyond the tangible realm of what we are detecting with our senses “right now” and connect us to intangible notions of wonder that force us to pause and consider just how astounding, or even improbable, the present experience truly is. Little sends me to that special place more than observing migratory birds that have recently landed for a fleeting stop to recharge before the next leg of their transcontinental journey.
It is fitting, then — albeit coincidental — that we feature a bird migration-themed cover story on the first issue of Green Teacher for which I will serve as the new editor.
