An exhilarating meditation on nature and its seasons-a personal narrative highlighting one year's exploration on foot in the author's own neighborhood in Tinker Creek, Virginia. In the summer, Dillard stalks muskrats in the creek and contemplates wave mechanics; in the fall she watches a monarch butterfly migration and dreams of Arctic caribou. She tries to con a coot; she collects pond water and examines it under a microscope. She unties a snake skin, witnesses a flood, and plays -King of the Meadow' with a field of grasshoppers.

我对全书记忆点都围绕在waterbug和青蛙上了，太恐怖了。我们觉得大自然恐怖残忍，但其实这才是自然的常态，我们才是里面的怪胎。

美好。每个清醒的、有阳光的、在城市里的早上，就会翻几页，又是一本陪了一年读完了的

第二本Annie Dillard，果然对我来说还是说教意味重了一些。诚如她本人所言，不是一本essay集，而是一篇theodicy。当然议论之外自然观察是写得很好的，太多地方心有戚戚。读到stalking muskrat一段，才发现muskrat竟是那样神出鬼没的生物，自己先前却看得那般明目张胆、不加掩饰，真是失敬失敬。

白天时有点晦涩难读，但失眠的凌晨读起来竟无比顺畅。长了好多知识，比如见面时用鼻子蹭蹭对方表示友好的爱斯基摩人也会在冬天在刀上抹上蜜糖吸引狼，狼冻的根本没发觉舌头已经被割成了彩带；夏天把用线穿过幼鸟的喙然后放它们上天。它们努力却无法挣脱，用它们吸引到更多的鸟然后把它们一网打尽......

书写得很好，但是我读不下去。
