The Nature of Florida's Waterways : Incl. Dragonflies, Cattails, and Mangrove Snapper
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Florida's waterways are host to thousands of land, air and water species. This book describes some of the things you'll "see, smell, taste, hear and feel" around Florida's waterways. It includes aquatic life most visible from bridges, shorelines, piers and boats, and celebrates the interconnectedness of all water creatures--menhaden to moonflowers, 'gators to green herons, and cicadas to cattails. The book is illustrated throughout with marvelously detailed pen-and-ink drawings by the author.

About the Author
A former senior editor at the Johns Hopkins University/Applied Physics Laboratory at Cape Canaveral, Cathie Katz has written several wildlife books from her home in Melbourne, Florida. Cathie has lived in Israel, Holland, Germany, Spain and Portugal, studying a broad range of natural habitats. A superb wildlife illustrator, she was the founder of "The Drifting Seed" newsletter with Dr. Charles R. Gunn, and director of an annual International Beachcombers' Symposium. The last book she undertook before her death in 2001, "Beaches and Beyond," was to be an illustrated book about the behaviors of ocean animals showing that science and spirit are inseparable. With her energy and enthusiasm, Cathie was an inspiration to all who were fortunate enough to have crossed her path.
