Book Synopsis Bayou-Diversity by : Kelby Ouchley
Book excerpt: Through a collection of essays about Louisiana's natural history, Kelby Ouchley's Bayou Diversity details an amazing array of plants and animals found in the Bayou State. Baldcypress, orchids, feral hogs, eels, black bears, bald eagles and cottonmouth snakes live in the well over a hundred bayous of the region. Collectively, Ouchley's vignettes portray vibrant and complex habitats. But human interaction with the bayou and our role in its survival, Ouchley argues, will determine the future of these intricate ecosystems.
