![]() The creatures that live among us are explored not just through science and natural history, but also myth, memoir, story, philosophy. In an homage to the medieval bestiary form, my modern bestiary mingles the many beautiful human ways of knowing. The Urban Bestiary is a song-a symphony, really-in support of this belief. It also allows these communities–made up of humans and myriad other animals-to flourish. ![]() It makes us more creative, responsive, responsible, imaginative, wild, and happy inhabitants of our home communities. It is my passionate belief that daily connection with the natural, wild world matters. ![]() Now I want to tell you a little about what’s inside. If you read The Tangled Nest you’ve heard bits about it here and there, and if you follow me on Facebook, you’ve seen a glimpse of the gorgeous cover. I am very pleased to announce that my new book, The Urban Bestiary: Encountering the Everyday Wild, will be published by Little, Brown this fall. ![]()
