A twelve-month excursion through nature's seasons as recounted by a
lifetime naturalist In this "personal encyclopedia of nature's
seasons," lifetime naturalist Bruce Beehler reflects on his three
decades of encountering nature in Washington, D.C. The author takes
the reader on a year-long journey through the seasons as he
describes the wildlife seen and special natural places savored in
his travels up and down the Potomac River and other localities in
the eastern and central United States. Some of these experiences
are as familiar as observing ducks on the National Mall in
Washington, D.C., or as unexpected as collecting
fifty-million-year-old fossils on a Potomac beach. Beyond our
nation's capital, Beehler describes trips to nature's most
beautiful green spaces up and down the East Coast that, he says,
should be on every nature lover's bucket list. Combining diary
entries, riffs on natural subjects, field trips, photographs, and
beautiful half-tone wash drawings, this book shows how many outdoor
adventures are out there waiting in one's own backyard. The author
inspires the reader to embrace nature to achieve a more peaceful
existence.
