The mission of the Highlands Center for Natural History is to help children and adults to discover the wonders of nature and become wise caretakers of the land. For more than three years Al Lodwick has lived near and walked the trails at the Highlands Center and Lynx Lake in Arizona's Prescott National Forest making photographs and observations of nature's changes. This book details those observations in both text and full-color photographs. The highlights are things that the causal walker along the trails can experience without any elaborate equipment or investment in time other than an enjoyable day observing the offerings of nature. The book includes ideas for entertaining children and stimulating their interest in nature. The emphasis of the book is understanding what is observed rather than a field-guide for identification. The book has sections devoted to birds, flowers, trees, shrubs, grasses, fungi, lichens, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, insects, arachnids, and geology. The final section gives examples of what might be seen during each season of the year.
