Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Great Meadows Wildlife Refuge is a 12-mile-long (19 km) river wetlands conservation area, in two major parcels, stretching from the towns of Billerica, Massachusetts (downstream) to Wayland, Massachusetts (upstream), along the Concord River and Sudbury River.
Part of the National Wildlife Refuge system, the park is a popular destination for bird watchers and tourists. About 85 percent of the refuge's 3,600 acres (15 km2) is freshwater wetlands.
Great Meadows Carp Run Fills Bayou
During a period of high water on the Concord River, catfish and carp seek to swim through seasonal swamps and bayous into the shallow water embayments at the Great Meadow National Wildlife Refuge to spawn. One of the fish beached itself on the bank, and a water snake with eyes bigger than its mouth tries repeatedly swallow a small catfish. In the end, though the fish was small, it was still too big for the snake.

Blanding's Turtle Conservation - Local Conservation at Its Best
GWC, in partnership with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, has been monitoring and managing the Blanding’s turtle population at Great Meadows NWR in Concord, MA since 2003. Though still one of the largest populations of this Threatened species in MA, there are 60% fewer Blanding’s turtles at Great Meadows than in the early 1970’s. Working with schools, Zoo New England, and the New England Aquarium as well as many volunteers, we radio-track turtles, protect their nests, raise (“headstart”) hatchling turtles for nine months, and then release them back into their native habitats. We are also working to improve Blanding’s turlte habitat in the area. We have demonstrated that our headstarted juveniles survive and thrive at high rates after their release and, in time, we are confident that the Great Meadows Blanding’s turtle population will be fully restored as one of the largest in all New England.

Massachusetts Whitetail Deer
Went outside and took some test shots on a Sony Handycam CX190 that I just picked up for this upcoming hunting season. The quality isn't perfect as I still really don't know how to use the camera, but the deer were 215 yards away with about 30 minutes of light left in the day
