From winter candy and spring quackers to summer's scarlet farewell
and autumn reveilles, noted nature writer Ted Williams invites
readers along on a year-long immersion in the wild and fleeting
moments of the natural world. This beautifully crafted collection
of short, seasonal essays combines in-depth information with
evocative descriptions of nature's marvels and mysteries. Williams
explains the weather conditions that bring out the brightest reds
in autumn leaves, how hungry wolf spiders catch their prey, and why
American goldfinches wait until late July or August to build their
nests. In the tradition of Thoreau, Carson, and Leopold, Ted
Williams's writing stands as a testament to the delicate balance of
nature's resilience and fragility, and inspires readers to
experience the natural world for themselves and to become advocates
for protecting and preserving the amazing diversity and activity
found there.
