"Who's making all those holes?"
They're everywhere in the desert! Ground holes. Elevated holes. Divots. Mounds. The revised edition of this quirky and popular field guide helps curious visitors -- as well as seasoned naturalists -- sort through the often bewildering abundance of desert holes so they can find out who's behind all that digging. Includes over 60 drawings of desert animals, their holes, and their tracks, and over 50 full-color photographs.
Desert Holes - Nature Guide -
By Pinau Merlin - Pinau Merlin has lived in the desert Southwest for 25 years and in wilderness areas for 14 years. Ms. Merlin leads natural history expeditions in the United States and Mexico, teaches tracking, designs wildlife habitat and nature trails, and writes on a variety of natural history topics.
Animals Tracks - How many times have you seen tracks ahead of you in the sand, a muddy trail, or across a blanket of snow, and wondered what creature made them? This handy, pocket-sized guide helps you name the track maker. Just check for size with the ruler located on the back cover of the book, then compare one of the life-size track drawings with the mystery imprint to identify the track. Includes 40 to 50 different animals and many birds most common in the Southwest region, with information on size, sounds, habitat, diet, and patterns of movement. By Chris Stall
