Product Description
The natural world in the Adirondacks features a
cast of thousands, many of which are a familiar
sight to anyone that spends time in the region.
Adirondack Nature Notes presents a glimpse
into the lives of some of these characters. For
example, why does the black-capped chickadee
change its tune during the early mornings of
mid-winter, or what is that hawk doing perched
on a tree a short distance from a highway after
the leaves have all fallen from the trees? Where
do all those mosquitoes that seem to be everywhere
during the early summer come from, and
what’s the story behind the large beetle that continually
crashes into your screen window at
night shortly after Memorial Day? Adirondack
Nature Notes picks up where the Adirondack
Almanac left off, and presents many more fascinating
facts and pieces of information about the plants and animals that share this unspoiled section of New York State with us. Illustrated by Sheri Ansel. 235 Pages. Paperback. 2010.
