'Flying south in the fall & north in the spring, waterfowl have followed travel routes in the sky for centuries. These migrations are repeated year after year as ducks & gesse pass fomr one region or climate to another for feeding or breeding. Wildlife biologists call these migration corridors flyways, & each flyway- Atlantic, Mississippi, Central, & Pacific - is as varied as the birds that inhabit them. This book is a photographic & informative journey across North America, from the Atlantic to the Pacific & from the tundra to the tropics, following the ebb & flow of waterfowl & other wildlife as they travel along these ancestral routes known as flyways. Stunning photos & inspired text provoke admiration & awe for the beauty & complexity of North America's waterfowl & the vanishing wetlands they call home.
