## Resource

In this episode, we bring you the second half of our two-part conversation with Faansie Peacock. In this episode, we dig even deeper into the topics that matter — from the ethics of birding, how we engage with rare birds, the role of technology in modern birding, and the importance of building community. Faansie also shares how becoming a dad has shaped his perspective on birds and life, and why curiosity, humility, and joy should always be part of the journey.
