Susanne Swing Thompson is the author of A Closer Look: The Neighborhood and the creative mind behind Wren Photos. Susanne is a big believer in the power and whimsy that can happen when we look more closely at our own backyards, streets, and local parks.

While birding can take us far afield - and this is fun! - when we tune into the birds, wildlife, and flora right on our own front steps, we can begin to find magic right where we are.

“I find myself wondering, ‘What is happening at home?’” said Susanne.

Join us for this episode as we look more closely at our own neighborhoods and encourage you to do the same.
