Summary:
"In the tradition of Wild LA comes Wild Philadelphia, a celebration of the surprisingly rich natural history of Philadelphia and surrounding areas. It is a unique guide to the region written by a naturalist with more than 40 years of experience writing and teaching about nature, mostly in Philadelphia. Today, the world's fastest animal strafes pigeons from City Hall in the exact center of the city, bald eagles nest only a stone's throw from the international airport, and a Serengeti of American toads crosses a Roxborough street on the first warm rainy night of every spring. Stunningly colorful warblers perch in a compact forest in a packed city neighborhood where every Spring, masses of birders migrate to excitedly watch them. Coyotes are beginning to find their way into Philadelphia, and if an occasional bear wanders into the city from New Jersey or the Poconos, as one did in 2019, don't be too surprised"--Provided by publisher.
