Wildlife

[close] A quiet corner for readers who love nature, slow living, folkcraft, ecology, healing, homesteading, wildlife, and heartfelt storytelling. This group follows the same spirit as the Little Fox Hearthstead blog — grounded, warm, curious, and always growing. Here, we read at our own pace. We share books that nourish us, help us learn, challenge us gently, or bring us comfort. Whether you’re exploring field guides, mental health reads, folklore, natural history, homesteading basics, or cozy novels, you’re welcome here. This is a space for: • thoughtful discussion • learning together • respecting each other’s boundaries • sharing resources without pressure or judgment • and most importantly having fun and making friends! Curl up, settle in, and make yourself at home.

[close] I'm a wildlife filmmaker and author. I'd love to answer any questions you may have about my books or my work! Here is my bio: Chris Palmer has spearheaded the production of more than 300 hours of original programming for prime-time television and the giant screen IMAX industry, including the Disney Channel, TBS, Animal Planet, Travel Channel, and PBS. The President of One World One Ocean Foundation and the MacGillivray Freeman Films Educational Foundation, Palmer and his colleagues have won numerous awards, including two Emmys, an Oscar nomination, and a Lifetime Achievement Award for the Media at the International Wildlife Film Festival. He founded the Center for Environmental Filmmaking at American University in 2005, a year after joining AU's full-time faculty as Distinguished Film Producer in Residence.

[close] This book club provides a relaxed environment for learning something new and getting outdoors with other nature enthusiasts. We read books with strong ties to nature and the Great Plains from a variety of genres. When we can't meet for walking and talking, we'll chat here.
