This is a peaceful and charming read about an individual's love of those areas that nurture turtles. The author is an artist whose connection to the wet areas around him are a necessary part of his life. I found this reading incredible relaxing and I pictured myself walking beside the author as he searched for his beloved turtles. Carroll won the John Burroughs Medal for Best Natural History of the Year for Swampwalker's Journal: A Wetlands Year which I added to my WL because of the joy I found in this book.
