| Re: Who inspired your interest in wildlife?
My class teacher when I was 8 - she was batty about wildflowers and had the class bring them in and then they were labelled and put in jam-jars on the window sills....first term I refused to have anything to do with it, but by the third term I was totally hooked!
That awareness of them has stayed with me ever since and enriched my awareness of whats around me immeasurably........Miss Nightingale, thank you!
(Sudden daft thought - is there anyone posting here who also went to Talbot Heath (Hampshire) and remembers Miss Nightingale?) |
