An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the World Around Us
In this talk, Pulitzer Prize winner and bestselling author Ed Yong shares how he became a birder. After becoming burnt out from years of pandemic reporting, Yong turned to birdwatching to help improve his mental health and return to his nature writing beat. Along the way, Yong found a much deeper connection to the natural world. Now, Yong shares with audiences how birdwatching fosters joy, wonder, and connection to the world around you.
