Today's guest, aquatic biologist Declan McCabe, is urging us to protect water bodies like ponds and streams and the creatures that live in them. His new book, Turning Stones: Discovering The Life Of Water, is a collection of 54 nature essays that provide a look at the astounding diversity of life that depends on water. He examines a range of life forms and looks at ways to preserve clean water for the next generation and beyond. Check out Declan's podcast, Nature Snippets, wherever you download your podcasts.
