The David Attenborough Issue. Choreographing a film where all the animals in the world sing "Happy Birthday" at the same time has proven extremely difficult. So instead we put together a small thank-you note disguised as a magazine for Sir David Attenborough. It's not every year the notable lad from England turns 100. A nod to the quiet miracles of things unfolding exactly as they should, filled with things like how to make a nature documentary with Silverback Films, a field guide from Antarctica, an ode to Jane Goodall, and a whole lot about the wonder, curiosity, and conservation of the natural world. Keep exploring.
