Summary
Spanning 1,200 kilometres from New Brunswick's Passamaquoddy Bay to Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula, Atlantic Canada stands as a nexus between North America and the North Atlantic Ocean. Its diverse geography, variable climate, and surrounding ocean currents coalesce to create a rich medley of habitats both on the land and in the sea. There are currently eight thousand known species in this little corner of the world, and nature photographer Scott Leslie has captured a beautiful selection of them. Discover the stunning array of animals living in the region - from elusive black foxes, to clouds of semi­palmated sandpipers, and endangered right whales, with colour images and detailed, narrative captions. Perfect for seasoned naturalists and novice nature lovers alike. Scott Leslie is a nature photographer, author and naturalist living in Bear River, Nova Scotia.
