From a perch in the branches, Charles Abbott watches the countryside wake: the first flowers, the returning birds, the building of nests just overhead. His essays ramble through New Jersey fields and woods with easy affection. Gentle nature writing at a treetop's height. Climb up and watch the seasons turn with him.
