I admire my colleagues for many things, chief among them their imagination–the ability to see connections where many people would not.

A great example: Jon Dunn’s new tour combining birding with an exploration of Civil War history in Georgia and South Carolina.

As we approach the 150th anniversary of that traumatic period in US history, thousands of commemorations will take place across the country; Jon’s new tour adds depth and perspective by connecting the natural history and the human history of some quintessentially American landscapes.
