It takes years to learn the art of seeing, of expecting to see nature's gifts. In Soul of the Outdoors, Dave Greschner passes that art along. He tells how little that chickadee at the feeder weighs, how tree buds survive in winter, how far a fisher leaps, and what the six blobs of shadows are on the creek bed below a water strider. He traces the cycle of seasons, immersing us in spring hikes to the marshes of emerging frogs and returning birds, summer's coolness along the trout stream, a forgotten apple tree in autumn, and a full moon snowshoe hike in winter. With humor and heart, Soul of the Outdoors treks along the trails of one's outdoor adventures and, ultimately, the trails of our lives.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Central Park birder Christian Cooper takes us beyond the viral video that shocked a nation and into a world of avian adventures, global excursions, and the unexpected lessons you can learn from a life spent looking up.“Wondrous . . . captivating.”—Ed Yong, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of An Immense WorldA Washington Post and Chicago Public Library Best Book of the Year • Longlisted for the Andrew Carnegie Medal Christian Cooper is a self-described “Blerd” (Black nerd), an avid comics fan and expert birder who devotes every spring to gazing upon the migratory birds that stop to rest in Central Park, just a subway ride away from where he lives in New York City. While in the park one morning in May 2020, Cooper was engaged in the birdwatching ritual that had been a part of his life since he was ten years old when what might have been a routine encounter with a dog walker exploded age-old racial tensions. Cooper’s viral video of the incident would send shock waves through the nation.In Better Living Through Birding, Cooper tells the story of his extraordinary life leading up to the now-infamous incident in Central Park and shows how a life spent looking up at the birds prepared him, in the most uncanny of ways, to be a gay, Black man in America today. From sharpened senses that work just as well at a protest as in a park to what a bird like the Common Grackle can teach us about self-acceptance, Better Living Through Birding exults in the pleasures of a life lived in pursuit of the natural world and invites you to discover them yourself.Equal parts memoir, travelogue, and primer on the art of birding, this is Cooper’s story of learning to claim and defend space for himself and others like him, from his days at Marvel Comics introducing the first gay storylines to vivid and life-changing birding expeditions through Africa, Australia, the Americas, and the Himalayas. Better Living Through Birding recounts Cooper’s journey through the wonderful world of birds and what they can teach us about life, if only we would look and listen.

"Examining the cultural belief that our animal instincts are to be corrected or corralled, nature advocate and rewilding facilitator Vanessa Chakour explores our inner and outer landscapes through the lens of wild animals. How can wolves, misunderstood in myths but vital to ecosystems, teach us to rewrite dangerous stories and respect nature's wisdom? How do the peaceful coexistence strategies of black bears offer insights into sharing resources? How can the engineering feats of beavers guide us in fostering regenerative building solutions and vibrant ecosystems? What can the loyal partnership of seahorses teach us about nurturing and love? In Earthly Bodies, Vanessa draws parallels from struggles she has weathered in her own life to those endured by twenty-three wild animals-from wolves to sea lions-exploring our unease of feeling like prey; challenging the entrapment of our limiting beliefs; contextualizing the turmoil of fractured landscapes; and affirming our primal ache to belong. Vanessa's pivotal encounters with creatures in sync with their primal rhythms and demands illustrate the necessity of relying on the intelligence of gut instinct; of the magnetic pull of attraction; of the body's mandate for restorative rest; and of the sacred bonds of love. We often cut ourselves off from identifying with wild animals-like wolves, foxes, bats and bears, and other animal relatives-out of fear, ignorance, disgust, or misunderstanding, yet our earthly human bodies can lead us in our pursuits of pleasure, love, wonder, healing, and connection. With each section containing an aspect of injured animal's return home to their natural habitat, and-in our case-to an embodied, instinctual self, Earthly Bodies meditates on how this journey from enclosures, to rehabilitation, to soft release, and finally to homing raises questions about our humanity. In so learning, we understand how we might benefit from embracing our own animal nature to gain deeper self-actualization, find common ground with our fellow animals, and learn to thrive together"--

Nature is cyclic with the same things occurring at the same time each and every year, whether it be the night sky, migration of birds, or the emergence of miller moths. In The Naturalist's Almanac, Peyton takes you through the year, month by month, looking at the various cycles of nature that are associated with each month. The year starts with wolves and ends with the discussion of reindeer. In between are recaps of weather events, stories of different constellations, and multiple natural history essays about a variety of birds, insects, and other animals. In addition, Peyton talks about the impact of smallpox on the New World, the drama associated with the development of vaccines for polio, irrigation, the problem with longitude, and the determination of the birthday of Earth. The Naturalist's Almanac is a look at nature as we once again make a trip around the sun.

For 40 years Wayne Mollhoff conducted a personal bird census every January. He explains:"After having run several Breeding Bird Survey routes, and participated in several Christmas Bird Counts, I became curious to see what might be found on a winter count under the more tightly controlled parameters of a census, as contrasted with Christmas counts done with variable numbers of observers." The count was set up similarly to the USGS Breeding Bird Survey routes with 50 stops, one-half mile (800 meters) apart, all birds counted for 3 minutes, with birds counted at one stop not counted again at following stops. The census route ran from the northwest corner of Boone County, along Beaver Creek, to a point outside Albion. Counts began at local sunrise. A total of 73 species were recorded during the 40-year census. This paper records those results and offers observations on patterns of occurrence or absence and changes in frequency.A Nebraska Ornithologists' Union Occasional Paper

Uanset om du bor i byen eller på landet, er der en masse forskellige fugle alle vegne. Solen er dårligt nok stået op, før de begynder at slå triller, kvidre og pippe højlydt. På det tidspunkt sover du nok dybt og tungt. Hvad kan du kende fuglene på? Alle fugle lægger æg, og de kan næsten allesammen flyve. Men fuglene adskiller sig fra hinanden ved deres størrelse, farven på deres fjer og deres sang. Vil du vide, hvem der synger på dit tag eller bygger rede i hækken i din have? Følg med flere end 40 hjemlige fugle i løbet af året, og find ud af, hvordan de bor, hvad de spiser, hvordan de opfostrer deres unger, og hvordan de forbereder sig på vinteren.

Hvem har gået hen over sneen? Er det små fødder eller store poter? Er aftrykket rundt eller aflangt? Løber sporene lige ud eller på kryds og tværs? Hvem kender ikke synet af spor i nyfalden sne? Sporene fortæller os, at der foregår meget derude i skoven og på markerne om natten. Hvis man ser godt efter, kan man godt skelne dyrenes spor fra hinanden. For der er ikke spor, der er ens. Også fjer og ekskrementer kan afsløre, hvilket dyr der er kommet forbi.En smuk bog om dyrespor, der viser børn, hvordan sporene ser ud, så de selv kan gå på sporjagt i sneen ude i skoven eller på markerne. En dejlig bog, der så at sige kan lede børn på sporet af vores skønne natur.Bogen er i storformat og dyresporene er vist i naturlig størrelse.

Unsere Sprache ist geprägt von Redewendungen, Sprichwörtern, Begriffen und Assoziationen. Vieles davon bezieht sich auf die Tierwelt und wir benutzen es fast täglich. Wir aalen uns in der Sonne, fühlen uns manchmal hundeelend, können kauzig sein, stehen bei Problemen wie der Ochse vor dem Berg oder sind zickig.Den Tieren werden Verhaltensweisen zugeschrieben - stimmig oder nicht - die sich dann im Wortschatz wiederfinden. So die Naschkatze, der heulende Schlosshund oder der Killerwal. Hier im Buch werden die Redensarten und Begriffe mit ihrer Bedeutung und ihrem Hintergrund erklärt, denn schließlich sollten wir immer wissen, was wir da reden und ob es den Tieren auch gerecht wird. Informationen, Fakten und Geschichten über die entsprechenden Tiere kommen dabei nicht zu kurz.
