Animal Quote by Jonathan Balcombe

“From my earliest memories I was fascinated by animals. I would explore my backyard for insects and gaze at anthills until my elbows became sore. When I was 8, my mother bought me a book of North American birds and I've been keen on birdwatching since.” quote by Jonathan Balcombe
