Wetlands are often seen as the ultimate symbol of beauty and tranquillity, their clear waters sheltering mysterious animals in a world where change is gentle and slow, from dragonflies skimming above their own reflections to the fishes glimpsed briefly below. Yet Australian wetlands are among the most varied and changeable habitats found anywhere, and the many creatures that live out their lives in and around water are superbly adapted to some of the most unpredictable ecosystems in the world.This book follows the diverse common themes and patterns that link inland waters from Tasmania to the tropics. It shows how cycles of change, the ways that different wetland animals travel through and between wetlands, and the interactions of the animals themselves create an ever-changing ecological kaleidoscope.

About the Author

Nick Romanowski is a zoologist, writer and photographer who has been fascinated by all forms of aquatic life from a young age. In the course of researching interactions between plants and animals, he established Australia’s first indigenous wetland nursery, giving him the freedom to research, experiment with and write about a broad range of animals from across most of this continent. He has written numerous articles on indigenous fishes and aquatic invertebrates, as well as many books including three recent practical guides from CSIRO PUBLISHING: Planting Wetlands and Dams, Wetland Habitats and Wetland Weeds.
