Essential reading for anyone who studies or simply loves Canada's wild places. Detailed, exact, and quietly authoritative. Volume 112 (1998) of The Canadian Field-Naturalist is a concentrated issue from a long-established Canadian natural history journal, assembling field-led work across provinces and habitats. Its pages pair concise wildlife observation reports with longer ornithology and botany articles and methodical ecological field studies; together they form a field biology anthology that captures the state of Canadian ecosystems at the close of the twentieth century. The emphasis is practical and evidence-driven: careful sightings, distributional notes and seasonal records provide a trusted academic reference for biologists while remaining accessible to a wide readership as a nature enthusiasts resource. Researchers engaged in biodiversity research in Canada will recognise the volume as a source of baseline observations and localised data that feed broader conservation and monitoring efforts. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Historically, Volume 112 is an instructive snapshot of late 1990s Canadian science: it records the field methods, regional observations and species notes that sit within the proceedings of Canadian Field-Naturalists and that inform later assessments of change. Casual readers encounter readable, often vivid field reports; students and researchers find it a durable scientific periodical collection to consult for ecological field studies, ornithology and botany. Classic-literature collectors and institutional libraries will value the volume as a restored piece of scientific culture, while naturalists and local historians will prize its documentary traces of place, season and species. Clear, modest and enduring, this issue rewards both quick perusal and slow scholarly study - a quietly vital record of Canada's living landscapes. An indispensable reference for fieldwork, teaching and informed appreciation alike.
