From Scientific American Explorations
This latest entry in the Discover Nature series features "knowing and doing" activities to keep budding naturalists of all ages busy in the short, cold days and long, dark nights of winter. With experiments and observations for everyone, covering wildlife and wildflowers, stars and snowflakes.
Book Description
& 150 drawings & 6 x 9 . For beginning naturalists of any age Winter is no time to limit nature activity. In Discover Nature in Winter, informative background on melt-freeze cycles, winter stargazing, deciduous and coniferous trees, wildlife behavior, and much more are paired with hands-on explorations that bring the winter season to life: determining windchill, observing winter constellations, identifying tree branch patterns, studying life in frozen ponds. In this book, snow is not the defining characteristic of winter, but a drop in temperature, making the activities appropriate for readers in any region. With little more than a notebook, a hand lens, and curiosity, readers will be equipped for limitless winter discovery. Elizabeth Lawlor and Pat Archer have also teamed up on Discover Nature at the Seashore, Discover Nature Close to Home, and Discover Nature at Sundown
