Tracks in the Sky: Wildlife and Wetlands of the Pacific Flyway

As a testament to the beauty and importance of the wetlands of the West, photographer Tupper Ansel Blake and naturalist-writer Peter Steinhart present in provocative text and glorious full-color photography the spectacular panorama of the Pacific flyway. They examine the entire life system, but it is the almost overwhelming presence of the billiantly plumed waterfowl that dominate this breathtaking book. Tupper Blake has traveled from the Arctic tundra to the briny marshes of Central America following these great migratory flocks. He has caught them in all their graceful, elusive grandeur.
