#44 How to Keep a Naturalist's Notebook

How to Keep a Naturalist's NotebookHow to Keep a Naturalist's Notebook by Susan Leigh Tomlinson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Now this is what I'm talking about: you want to learn to keep a nature journal? -- here's the book for you. Lots of can-do attitude, but also the specifics of how to go from zero drawing experience to being a competent field naturalist. Lots of exercises (and I mean lots and lots, I'm still working my way through them.) Lots of examples of notebook pages from her students who are not professionals (not even aspiring professionals). If you wonder how you can learn about the nature around you, this is the place to start.
