The news magazine offers a wide variety of stories with something for pretty much everyone. This morning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/joel-sartore-on-saving-endangered-species-and-ourselves\/\">one of the program&#8217;s spots<\/a> brought attention to the work of National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore and his Photo Ark project. Sartore photographs the endangered species of the world and offers his work online and in photo books that benefit preservation. The feature had nothing to do with the Australian wildfires and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2019\/nov\/26\/koala-factcheck-australian-bushfires-survival-species-at-stake\">potentially permanent damage to endangered species<\/a> living in the outback, but in listening to Sartore it was impossible not to consider how his concerns regarding climate change are being realized as he spoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Photo Ark project and web site even offers a section devoted to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.org\/projects\/photo-ark\/education\/?locale=en\">providing resources to classroom teachers<\/a>. These resources include lesson ideas and plenty of stunning photographs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"695\" data-attachment-id=\"5493\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/2020\/01\/05\/photo-arc\/eagleowl\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eagleowl.png\" data-orig-size=\"1452,986\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"eagleowl\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eagleowl-1024x695.png\" src=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eagleowl-1024x695.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5493\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eagleowl-1024x695.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eagleowl-300x204.png 300w, https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eagleowl-768x522.png 768w, https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eagleowl.png 1452w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photography can be a great vehicle for appreciating wildlife. This is one of my favorite photos taken during a recent trip allowing us to spend time in southern Africa. This bird is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.krugerpark.co.za\/africa_eagle_owl.html\">an eagle owl<\/a> and the result of lucky photo opportunity. I have attempted to generate a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/grabe\/albums\/72157710729621777\">collection of wildlife photographs<\/a> from this trip I thought some educators might find useful. These photos identify the bird or animal, shared with a Creative Commons designation, and are attached with links to sources providing information about the species. <\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div><p id=\"pvc_stats_5492\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"5492\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/www.learningaloud.com\/blurts\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p><div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watching CBS Sunday Morning is the start of our Sunday morning routine.
