  Marooned in LA by the pandemic, a marine biologist rediscovers the delights and wonders of the natural world in her own backyard. 
   
   
   
  Conservationist and marine biologist Maddalena Bearzi made her career studying the wild creatures of the deep, but when COVID-19 made landfall on the California coast this seafaring scientist found herself shuttered up ashore, her wide blue world constricted by pandemic lockdown. Never good at sitting idle, she despaired at the confines of her Los Angeles flat—until she began to find wonder in the wilderness of her own backyard. 
   
   
   
  Stranded charts Bearzi's discovery of both rapture and resilience in the unsung wildlife of urban LA. With a green thumb and a canine sidekick, she finds as much to marvel at in her garden's singing blackbirds, night-blooming cacti, and industrious wasps as in the whales, dolphins, and sea lions at the center of her maritime adventures. Discovering in the quotidian an antidote to the grief occasioned by captivity and climate chaos, Bearzi reveals how each of us can take heart, find courage, and discover inspiration in the thrumming systems of life that surround us. With a scientist's precision and a poet's instinct, she invites us to look at, listen to, and revel in the everyday grandeur of the natural world—and to embrace, with urgency, our responsibility to sustain it.

  The Shocking Truth about...

  Zoey Fraisers

  Every day, we use products that we assume are safe. We lather on lotions, clean our homes with fresh-scented sprays, and cook meals in convenient nonstick pans without a second thought. But what if these everyday items contained hidden dangers? What if the very things designed to make our lives easier were quietly compromising our health?  
    
  The truth is, many household products contain chemicals that have been linked to a range of health concerns, from minor irritations to serious, long-term illnesses. Harmful ingredients lurk in everything from personal care products to cleaning supplies, often disguised under vague or misleading labels. Companies prioritize profit over safety, and regulatory agencies struggle to keep up with the thousands of chemicals introduced into the market each year. As a result, consumers are left exposed to substances that can disrupt hormones, weaken immune systems, and even increase the risk of chronic diseases.  
    
  Consider the shampoo you use every morning. It may contain sulfates that strip your hair of natural oils, synthetic fragrances that release harmful VOCs into the air, and preservatives like parabens that have been linked to hormonal imbalances. Or take a look at your kitchen. Nonstick cookware may release toxic fumes when overheated, plastic food containers can leach endocrine-disrupting chemicals into your meals, and even the tap water you drink might be carrying invisible contaminants.

  Part field guide, part history, part ornithology primer, and altogether fun. 
   
   
   
  Fact: Pigeons are amazing, and until recently, humans adored them. We've kept them as pets, held pigeon beauty contests, raced them, used them to carry messages over battlefields, harvested their poop to fertilize our crops—and cooked them in gourmet dishes. Now, with A Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching, listeners can rediscover the wonder. Equal parts field guide and quirky history, it covers behavior: Why they coo; how they flock; how they preen, kiss, and mate (monogamously); and how they raise their young (on chunky pigeon milk). Anatomy and identification, from Birmingham Roller to the American Giant Runt to the Scandaroon. Birder issues, like what to do if you find a baby pigeon stranded in the park. And our lively shared story together, including all the things we've taught them—Ping-Pong, for example. "Rats with wings?" Think again. 
   
   
   
  Pigeons coo, peck and nest all over the world, yet most of us treat them with indifference or disdain. So Rosemary Mosco, a bird-lover, science communicator, writer, and cartoonist, is here to give the pigeon's image a makeover, and to help every town- and city-dweller get closer to nature by discovering the joys of birding through pigeon-watching.
