Book excerpt: Take an enchanting journey through the shifting seasons in a wildlife sanctuary home to wetland, forest, and grassland and supporting an incredible diversity of plants and animals. Flocks of waterfowl exploding into steely skies above frozen marshland, salamanders creeping across the forest floor to vernal pools, chorusing frogs peeping their ecstasy while warblers crowd budding trees, turtles sunning on floating logs, the ecological engineering of beavers—these are but a few of the sights and sounds marking a year at Jug Bay Wetlands Sanctuary and its neighboring landscapes in Southern Maryland. In an absorbing account of a year in the life of this sanctuary, naturalist Colin Rees invites us to join him as he explores the secrets and wonders of the changing natural world. Alongside the author, we witness spring's avian migrations, quickening of aquatic vegetation, burgeoning of myriad invertebrates, and the assaults of extreme weather conditions. We revel in summertime's proliferation of fish, fowl, and mammals. We become attuned to the shifting climate's impacts on autumnal transitions, and we marvel at amazing feats of biological inventiveness in preparation for winter conditions. Through these visions of the fleeting—and yet enduring—cycles of nature, Rees shares deep insights into the ecological and behavioral dynamics of the natural environment. Enhanced by more than two dozen color plates, the book touches on a wide range of issues, from microbial diversity, bird banding, and butterfly phenology to genetic diversity and habitat fragmentation. It also examines the challenges of conserving these and other natural features in the face of climate change and development pressures. Thoughtful and lyrical, Nature's Calendar speaks to all readers, scientific and lay alike. Fascinating profiles of flora and fauna celebrate the richness and complexity of a unique ecosystem, exploring the entire ecology of this dynamic and delicate area.

Book excerpt: 'He writes so engagingly that it's hard to imagine that actual foraging can be more attractive than reading his accounts of it. ...[This book] is a treasure. It is beautifully produced, designed and illustrated.' - John Carey, The Sunday Times WINNER OF THE GUILD OF FOOD WRITERS AWARD FOR FOOD BOOK OF THE YEAR 2020 WINNER OF WOODLANDS AWARDS BEST WOODLAND BOOK OF THE YEAR 2020 Look out of your window, walk down a country path or go to the beach in Great Britain, and you are sure to see many wild species that you can take home and eat. From dandelions in spring to sloe berries in autumn, via wild garlic, samphire, chanterelles and even grasshoppers, our countryside is full of edible delights in any season. John Wright is the country's foremost expert in foraging and brings decades of experience, including as forager at the River Cottage, to this seasonal guide. Month by month, he shows us what species can be found and where, how to identify them, and how to store, use and cook them. You'll learn the stories behind the Latin names, the best way to tap a Birch tree, and how to fry an ant, make rosehip syrup and cook a hop omelette. Fully illustrated throughout, with tips on kit, conservation advice and what to avoid, this is an indispensable guide for everyone interested in wild food, whether you want to explore the great outdoors, or are happiest foraging from your armchair.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nature's Calendar: A Guide and Record for Outdoor Observations in Natural History Observation is at the basis of all scientific work, and is itself both a Science and an Art, although, after all, it is nothing more mysterious than the faculty of keeping open at the same time both the eyes and the mind. This little book docs not pretend to teach it-perhaps no book can do that. It does attempt, however, to save you valuable hours and fleeting opportunities by reminding you from time to time throughout the circle of the year what is doing then in the living world, by giving you a memorandum of some things for which you ought at that moment to be on the lookout, lest their brief period pass before you learn or remember that this is their appointed season.

Book excerpt: Noted nature writer Ted Williams invites readers along on a year-long immersion in the wild and fleeting moments of the natural world, from winter candy and spring quackers to summer’s scarlet farewell and autumn reveilles. 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.

Excerpt: ...are of the precise green of the leaves whose juices they suck; others are gray or brown, mimicking the bark and twigs upon which they crawl. Many, it is true, are of bright hues--yellow, red, or redbrown, black and white, or striped, barred and spotted with strong colors, foretelling the brilliant ornamentation of the winged adults to follow. Such are almost always guarded by their ugly knobbed or horned appearance, or by an armature of barbed prickles, or a covering of stiff hairs, or by special organs of defence. The caterpillars of the swallowtailed butterflies, for instance, are provided with a sort of double-barrelled gun which may be pushed out from behind the head, and it w: ll discharge an odor disgusting to insect-eating creatures. Most caterpillars "resist arrest" by hurling their heads from side to side, or by causing their barbed and acrid spines or hairs to prick and annoy their enemies; these are usuJune.12 ally distinctly colored, and may thus be easily recognized and avoided. Many birds will not touch such caterpillars, while some, like the cuckoos, will seize the most hairy ones as quickly as any other, but beat them into a pulp before swallowing them. When one remembers that most of these caterpillars, grubs, and other insect larvae are destructive to plants, and that those which attack cultivated plants and trees are given a chance to multiply just as fast as we cultivate their customary foods, one can see how important it is to protect and encourage the birds that are almost our only means of keeping the insect hosts within bounds. The plainest common-sense enjoins this, and it ought not to be necessary to teach it or argue about it at all. Before the month is out, a wide variety, as well as countless numbers...
