Image of Rachel Carson
To the bird watcher, the suburbanite who derives joy from birds in his garden, the hunter, the fisherman or the explorer of wild regions, anything that destroys the wildlife of an area for even a single year has deprived him of pleasure to which he has a legitimate right.

Sometimes it seems as near as a hedge, and sometimes as far as a faint and fiery evening cloud.
