From bats to owls to night-blooming flowers, author and naturalist Charles Hood and bat biologist José Gabriel Martínez-Fonseca detail these nocturnal critters and flora in the reference book Nocturnalia: Nature in the Western Night.
Focusing on California and the American Southwest, the book features over 100 photographs of various creatures of the night -- spiders, mice, moths, frogs, and more. This book is perfect for those interested in the nocturnal
and the botanical and is a great guidebook for discovering nature at night.
Event Note: Author and naturalist Charles Hood will be featured in a lecture at the Huntington's upcoming event Strange Science: Out of Time on Friday, October 25. Nocturnalia: The Amazon After Dark, 2050 A.D., led by Hood, will take us on a visual and auditory tour of the rainforest in the year 2050.
