Maryland and Washington DC are rich in ecosystems, from tidal flats and coastal marshes to old growth forests. These landscapes and wetlands host thousands of animals, such as state bird Baltimore Oriole, various seabirds, state reptile Diamondback Terrapin, and the intricately patterned Eastern Spotted Skunk. For many people, animals are the face of landscapes and wetlands, so it helps to get acquainted with the most familiar species. The portable reference Maryland & DC Wildlife features 140 common mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fishes, seashore creatures, butterflies, and other insects as well an ecoregion map showing over 20 wildlife-viewing hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is a fitting companion for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to forge deeper connections with the land through its attendant wildlife. Made in the USA.
