Absolutely facinating. Holmes spends a year studying what happens in her Maine yard. The crows, the Asiatic bittersweet, the sow bugs, the spiders -all and more are studied and explained and either glorified or vilified in turn. I particularly loved her romance with a chipmunk. Anyone who enjoys natural history should take a look at this book.
