I am in awe of this man and smitten with this tribute. I had no idea that you had interviewed Mr. Attenborough more than once. How wonderful! And that he's almost 100 is a gift to us all. This is an amazing human. I would like to point out something in his opening to the plants documentary--"They have to fight one another, they have to compete for mates, they have to invade new territories." I think this kind of tension makes exciting films, but my guess is that in nature we're going to find that exactly the opposite is more true. Thank you, Jeanne, for another great post.
I remember this one. You've spoken to quite a few famous people, but Sir David is certainly one of the most amazing and impressive. He has one of the most recognizable voices there has ever been, up there with Morgan Freeman, James Earl Jones, and Anthony Hopkins.
Thank you Jeanne Malmgren for your commentary today, along with your past efforts to interview Sir David Attenborough and share his love and study of Nature with the public. His latest movie, released today on his 99th birthday, is a perfect celebration of his life.

Excellent point, Janisse. Maybe he was only talking about kudzu. 😆
Thank you Jeanne, this is a wonderfully written tribute to an iconic naturalist.
However Jeanne, you are one of our Champion(s) of Nature too.
Namaste.
I'm 100 percent in agreement. Jeanne leads the way.
Thank you both, dear ones!

So true about his voice!
What an experience! Yay for Sir David and YAY for you!
Thank you, Leah!
What a wonderful legacy, and an inspiring part of your history! Thank you for sharing this with us.
You're welcome, Cathy! He's indeed a special human being.

You’re welcome, Gary. And yes, I’m looking forward to seeing that new movie!
As am I.
