  The Wildside Volume 2 highlights seventy five of the best of Scott Shalaway's syndicated nature columns. Let Scott introduce you to the natural history of creatures you see and enjoy every day--birds, bats, butterflies, and many other animals and plants. Compare personal perspectives on nature. Tag along as he describes his outdoor adventures, from the wilds of West Virginia to the Galapagos Islands. And learn how to attract more wildlife to your backyard with food, nest boxes, and wildflowers. 
  Scott Shalaway (1952-2025) earned his PhD in wildlife ecology at Michigan State. After working first at the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and then as a zoology professor at Oklahoma State University, he moved to West Virginia to fulfill his dream of becoming a freelance nature writer. Scott’s life “on the wild side” encompassed 33 years writing more than 2,000 columns, seven books, and several hundred magazine articles--many of which won writing awards. For 22 of those years, he also hosted live weekly radio shows in Pittsburgh and Wheeling, West Virginia. Scott led 13 birding tours to Mexico and 11 more to Ecuador, the Galapagos, Maine, the Everglades, southern Arizona, Hawk Mountain and Cape May. 
  This audiobook is brought to life by Scott's eldest daughter, author and voice actor Nora Shalaway Carpenter.

  Roger Windsor’s stories of life as, first, a naive student at vet school, then as a junior vet in general practice, and finally as a senior member of the Veterinary Investigation Service runing a laboratory in Africa, certainly give James Herriot a run for his money. His vignettes of animal woe and human frailty have enduring appeal, and the story of setting up such a valuable service in Botswana, and helping to build that country’s agricultural and forensic veterinary resources, is truly fascinating. With his particular talent for veterinary detective work and more general eye for a character sketch and a tall tale, Windsor will keep even the most animal-averse readers turning the pages of this hilarious and touching autobiography.
