Description

(A Boston Globe Easiest Nonfiction Book of 2009) The creator, naturalist, and artist David Carroll illuminates the ecology and life histories the tree frogs, hawks, foxes, and the an increasing number of rare wood and spotted turtles he has been tracking for decades with the precision and passion that won him a 2006 MacArthur “genius” award.

Following the Water is the intensely observed chronicle of Carroll s annual March-to-November wetlands immersion from the enjoyment of the primary turtle sighting in March to the gorgeously described, vibrant trilling of tree frogs (“lichen with eyes”) in late Would possibly to the ancient sense of love and loss Carroll experiences each and every autumn when it’s time once again to part with open water.

Illustrated with the creator s fine pen-and-ink drawings, Following theWater is a good looking evocation of nature, an utterly unique “admission ticket to a secret corner of the world” (Bill McKibben).
