Stages of beauty

Our ability to perceive quality in nature begins, as in art, with the pretty. It expands through successive stages of the beautiful to values as yet uncaptured by language. ― Aldo Leopold

Meeting presentation

Leslie Science & Nature Center presented a most interesting program and introduced us to several beautiful raptors "up close and personal". Several of us commented in discussion after Sarah's presentation that we've never been to a meeting that kept everyone so captivated and interested. - Robbi Peterson
