    Annotation: "The Earth teems with sights and textures, sounds and vibrations, smells and tastes, electric and magnetic fields. But every animal is enclosed within its own unique sensory bubble, perceiving but a tiny sliver of an immense world. This book welcomes us into a previously unfathomable dimension: the world as it is truly perceived by other animals. We encounter beetles that are drawn to fires (and fireworks), songbirds that can see the Earth's magnetic fields, and brainless jellyfish that nonetheless have complex eyes. We discover that a crocodile's scaly face is as sensitive as a lover's fingertips, that the eyes of a giant squid evolved to see sparkling whales, and that even fingernail-sized spiders can make out the craters of the moon"--

The League's founders, Natasha and Alexxia, live by one motto: never give up on a turtle. But why turtles? What is it about them that inspires such devotion? ...

    People Pick of the Week

    "Unfailingly precise and lovingly poetic. . . . Nature writing of the first order." --The Wall Street Journal

    "A beautiful book; wise and sharp-eared as its subject." --Robert Macfarlane

    One minute I was sipping my tea by the window. There was nothing but the palest edge of grey light and a wisp of steam from my cup--and then a shadow swooped out of the air. With the lightest of scratches, as if the dawn light was solidifying into life, there it was, perched like an exclamation mark on the balcony: an owl, come to my home.

  • What a Bee Knows: Exploring the Thoughts, Memories, and Personalities of Bees

    BasicBinding: Hardcover

    Author: Buchmann, Stephen L

    Publisher: Island Press

    Date Published: 03-2023

    ISBN: 1642831247 | EAN: 9781642831245

    BasicBinding: Hardcover

    Features: Bibliography, Illustrated, Index, Price on Product | Pages: 296

    Annotation: The next time you hear the low buzzing sound of an approaching bee, look closer: the bee has navigated to this particular spot for a reason using a fascinating set of tools. She might be responding to scents on the breeze as her olfactory organs provide a 3D map of an object's location. She might be tracing the route based on her memories of a particular flower or the electrostatic traces left by other bees. What a Bee Knows: Exploring the Thoughts, Memories, and Personalities of Bees invites us to follow bees' mysterious pathways and experience their complex and alien world.

    Although their brains are incredibly small--just one million neurons compared to humans' 100 billion--bees have remarkable abilities to navigate, learn, communicate, and remember. In What a Bee Knows, entomologist Stephen Buchmann explores a bee's way of seeing the world and introduces the scientists who make the journey possible. What a Bee Knows will challenge your idea of a bee's place in the world--and perhaps our own.
