Lights Camera Action

This article was about a family hosting a TV show for people to learn about nature. Ryan Jacobus and his family decided to move to Costa Rica when he was 10. The reason they decided to do this was Ryan and his two younger brothers were always interested in nature shows and they would go outside after them and pretend that they were looking for nature. They moved to Costa Rica and came up with the idea of hosting a TV show for people to learn and care for nature. The artical is explaining about how Ryan is getting up a 4 in the morning to go to a observation site to study some migratory birds. The artical said that Ryan had to go up there 4 times before he actually go to see them. It explains that the boys want to teach people that nature is apart of us and that we should take care of it. Another reason why the boys want to show people this is because rought 25% of our medicine were derived from plant life. The family would like to see videos other people have made to see what is in their backyards. They are incouraging classrooms to do this for them. The name of the TV show is called Super Natural Adventures. They seem to be enjoying themselves very much.

This is my blog about reading magazine articales about sience and summerizing about what we learned. I found the artical i read very interesting that a normal American family decides to move to Costa Rica to help people learn about nature by creating a TV show.
