Re: What kicked off your wildlife interest?

To a certain extent my 3 grown up kids have the same interest, but not as deep as mine. I was wondering where your interest started. Was there a defining moment?
I've always had an interest in nature, my own personal reasons for what is now my main past time, was last year when I found I could walk further than I had been able to in the past, due to health reasons. I don't know how long my current state will remain, but for as long as it does, I make the most of it!
Add an interest in photography, and the rest was a foregone conclusion..
