Book Description
This book is a Who's Who of Cape and Island nature writers. A Guide to Nature on Cape Cod and the Islands explores the behavior and life cycles of the plant and animal species that are common to each, and describes what to look for and where to find it. Written by some of New England's foremost naturalists and scientists, each chapter covers one type of wildlife family and is accompanied by an informative question and answer section. Included are essays by, among others, John Hay on the secrets of nature, Robert Finch on woodlands, Richard LeBlond on wetlands, John Portnoy on ponds, Robert Barlow on the peculiarities of Cape and Islands weather, the late Donald Zinn on the power of the sea, and the late Erma Fisk on birds of the region.

An indispensable handbook for everyone in the family, A Guide to Nature on Cape Cod and the Islands provides a greater understanding of the natural world around us.

5 out of 5 stars An essential guide for Cape explorers   May 19, 2002
 1 out of 4 found this review helpful

O'Brien has captured the essence of the mystery, beauty and natural wonders of Cape Cod. This book is essential for anyone who wishes to find the elusive nest of the Gull Winged Shepherdor or to identify the mating call of the migrating Flavell. O'Brien, a Cape Cod naturalists who has study the flora and fauna of Old Cape Cod since 1937, has given us a precious resource with the "Guide to Nature on Cape Cod and the Islands."
