Heavily forested and situated along the coast of the North Atlantic Ocean, New England is a terrific place to learn about flora and fauna, whether it be maple trees with their vibrant autumn foliage or marine species like puffins, gannets, whales, kelp, and lobsters. To better acquaint you with the natural history of Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island, we have packaged together three portable references--Birds, Trees & Wildflowers, and Wildlife--in an attractive acetate bag. Each guide features beautiful illustrations of over 100 common species, as well as an ecoregion map showing top bird-finding, botanical, or wildlife-viewing hotspots. Laminated for durability, these lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guides comprise a comprehensive three-pack for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, botanists, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to deepen their familiarity with over 300 of New England's most representative plants and animals. Made in the USA.
