Excellent set of essays exploring the natural world (emphasis, birds) of the author's local region within walking distance. Beautifully written, this book is bound to become a classic of the genre. Loved it.

The publisher is a family friend, and my mother is a colleague of Mr. Kline's, so I found myself with a copy of the book. I found it quite peaceful. Boring, but not uninteresting. It made me a bit homesick for the area where I grew up.
