    Your body language brings back memories. When I was in school studying plant ecology, there was a kind of joke. We would sometimes have a mixture of plant people and bird people on a hike. The plant people would look at the ground and make all kinds of noise, while the bird people would be looking up at the trees and stomp all over the plants! 😅😅
