Have you ever stopped what you were doing to watch a butterfly as it fluttered by? Or noticed a bird as it flew overhead and tracked it with your eyes until it landed? Whether you live in a rural or urban setting, if you walk outside during daylight hours, chances are you will encounter many forms of wildlife. From birds and squirrels, to butterflies and bees, humans and wildlife cross paths constantly. This is what I call wild passing thru. Fancy equipment and special skills are not necessary to enjoy the beauty and wonder of animals that we come across during our daily activities. Anyone can become a bird, butterfly, or wildlife watcher by simply listening and looking at their surroundings. This is how I discovered my passion for the wild passing thru my home.
