註釋

The forty-six essays on nature in this volume range from humorous to informative to philosophical. Based on columns written for the Dunkirk, (NY) Evening Observer, the essays provide the reader with a wealth of information about the natural world, as well as a few laughs with such essays as "Do You Have Arachnophilia?" & "The Tale of a Wayward Swan." From ferns to foxes, from birds to bees, the essays cover a wide range of topics reflecting both the wide interests of the author & the questions he gets from his readers. Dr. Allen H. Benton is a retired professor of biology, author of the widely used textbook, "Field Biology & Ecology", with Dr. William E. Werner, & well known for his research in the ecology & host relationships of fleas. After a lifetime of teaching the young, he is spending his retirement years in teaching the general public about nature.
