About This Book

A series of lyrical natural-history sketches moves through a New England pasture at different hours and seasons, tracing dawn light, bramble thickets, stone walls, and the shifting border between cultivated fields and encroaching woods. Each vignette concentrates on close observation of animals and plants—foxes, songbirds, frogs, butterflies, muskrats—and on the behaviors, calls, and movements that animate brooks, ponds, bogs, and hedgerows. The prose balances vivid sensory description with quiet reflection, highlighting seasonal rhythms, breeding and migration, and the persistent, gradual reclaiming of pasture by wild vegetation and wildlife.
