1
00:00:05,190 --> 00:00:03,669
my research has very much affected me

2
00:00:10,070 --> 00:00:05,200
i am

3
00:00:12,470 --> 00:00:10,080
naturalist and biologists in that

4
00:00:14,310 --> 00:00:12,480
all of my hypotheses are driven by

5
00:00:17,029 --> 00:00:14,320
observations first

6
00:00:20,070 --> 00:00:17,039
and then i develop studies to answer

7
00:00:21,510 --> 00:00:20,080
those questions which means

8
00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:21,520
i don't

9
00:00:25,910 --> 00:00:23,840
go out into the natural world with an

10
00:00:29,589 --> 00:00:25,920
expectation

11
00:00:32,150 --> 00:00:29,599
i i'd spend a lot of time observing

12
00:00:33,510 --> 00:00:32,160
and that is very much something that i

13
00:00:34,630 --> 00:00:33,520
learned from my family from my

14
00:00:38,229 --> 00:00:34,640
stepfather

15
00:00:40,709 --> 00:00:38,239
um how how to be a good listener

16
00:00:42,709 --> 00:00:40,719
and and that process is definitely

17
00:00:44,310 --> 00:00:42,719
iterative it was the process of

18
00:00:45,670 --> 00:00:44,320
listening to music that taught me how to

19
00:00:47,990 --> 00:00:45,680
listen to whales

20
00:00:49,350 --> 00:00:48,000
and then in the

21
00:00:51,910 --> 00:00:49,360
over a decade now that i've been

22
00:00:53,990 --> 00:00:51,920
listening to whales i found that i have

23
00:00:56,549 --> 00:00:54,000
learned how to listen to other things in

24
00:00:58,630 --> 00:00:56,559
a way that i did not expect

25
00:01:00,869 --> 00:00:58,640
i hear subtlety

26
00:01:02,869 --> 00:01:00,879
that i didn't hear before i spent so
