One of the key themes that show up in my Land Listening Walks is how participants notice different things. On one walk, some saw a labyrinth up ahead, while I totally missed it. On a different trip, a couple noticed the lilacs, while I was in awe of the dandelions that made the path look like we were following the yellow brick road.
