Experience field notes and natural history in one accessible, lyrical volume.
Field and Study gathers a seasoned naturalist’s observations of birds, plants, and the habitats around him. Burroughs blends practical note-taking with reflections on science, literature, and the human place in nature, offering a thoughtful portrait of the living world from the spring bird procession to ordinary days in the Hudson Valley.
Through vivid, plainspoken prose, the book invites readers to notice details—from migration patterns and nesting habits to the thrill of a sunset over a quiet meadow. It pairs practical observations with broader questions about evolution, mortality, and wonder, creating a timeless look at nature and how we relate to it.
Ideal for readers who enjoy clear, observant natural history with a contemplative, literary edge.
