Herper's Holiday
"Only with awareness of all life - plant and animal - can the greatest pleasure be gained from field
activities...As with a lovely mosaic, each piece by itself may have beauty
of line and color and possess
a certain independent aesthetic value, but when it finds its place in the
pattern as a whole, and is viewed
in relation to its fellow pieces, it attains the greatest worth and gives
the greatest delight".
-Karl Kauffeld, Snakes: The Keeper and the Kept
