Spring Comes to Oak Lake

Set around Oak Lake near the Illinois-Wisconsin border, *Wild Season* observes the seasonal shift from lingering cold to May’s warmer days through changes in the lives of animals on and around the water. Feeding, competition, mating, birth, and death form the book’s natural cycle, with the lake and its surroundings serving as the setting for renewed activity. The focus is on wildlife and the rhythms of the season rather than human affairs, offering a portrait of spring as a period of intensified life in a particular landscape.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in wildlife and seasonal changes in nature.

Book overview

Winter ended in late March. April was a transitional month, with freezing rains and raw winds. In May, spring truly arrives. As day after day the sun continues to shine, to warm the cold waters of Oak Lake near the Illinois-Wisconsin border, the lives of the animal who live in and around the lake begin to change, for May is the Wild Season. The feeding, the fighting, the mating, the bearing of young and the dying of nature's wild creatures take on intensity and excitement. There is a renewed vigor in the processes of life.
