Product Description
The San Juan Archipelago of Washington State is a wondrous place where the land meets the sea. In Rainshadow World, naturalist Susan Vernon explores the fascinating world of wildlife in one of the earth's richest biological realms. From rocky shores and tall grass prairies, to forests draped with mosses and lichens and resonating to the drumbeat of pileated woodpeckers, she encounters the first wildflowers of spring, watches a bald eagle's first flight, surveys rare island marble butterflies, and wonders at whales playing in the moonlight. Susan knows the best places to explore and takes readers on a compelling journey through an island year.BONUS FEATURES:
Comprehensive plant and animal checklists for the San Juans including selected plants, birds, butterflies, land mammals and marine mammals. Plus, an extensive list of reference works regarding the early exploration, cultural, and natural history of the archipelago.
