About VOICES IN THE WILDERNESS: A Prayer for Wild Things
==============================================================================
"For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with the extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings: they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth."
--"The Outermost House" - Henry Beston Author (1888-1968)
This mosaic symbolizes the concept of Voices in the Wilderness. This was our group icon and highlighted photo during our July Weekend Endangered Species Campaign.

EVOCATIVE IMAGES
Every once in a while a beautifully image comes along that is worth keeping in view:
H Karlsson took this photo: "Polar bear tracks, trailing away over the endless expanse of ice and snow. Will my daughter ever have the chance to see this?"

WEEKEND CAMPAIGNS
May 2007 Campaign -- Backyard birds
We didn't stray far from home in May, just out to the backyard, in fact.
==============================================================================
Our Third Weekend Campaign of 2007: Protest the Harp Seal Hunt
==============================================================================
Our Second Weekend Campaign of 2007:
In June 2006 Voices in the Wilderness hosted a weekend campaign against commercial whaling this weekend Feb. 10-12th we will be hosting another. The Japanese have requested a special meeting of the International Whaling Commission to reassess stocks. We invite everyone to post their whale and dolphin photos (and only whale and dolphin photos) in Voices this weekend to oppose this push for full-out commercial whaling-we think they're doing too much already, and this is supposedly only "scientific" whaling!
