My experience creating this project was decent, however, we were not able to record in time in class due to us being last recording on Monday and our schedule busy or not being able to go to school so forcing us to record on our own.

Nature, living creatures, their families, their culture, and even the next seven generations of their great great great-grandchildren and I respect them for that. Being aware of everything.
