A Field Guide to Small Weather
A year of looking closely at the sky.
About the book
From sea fog to late frost, Owen Hale keeps a field notebook of the weather that shapes a coastal garden. A Field Guide to Small Weather is an invitation to notice what is already happening above us.
Written in short, precise entries, it is less a meteorological guide than a practice of attention.
“Weather is not a backdrop. It is the oldest form of company.”
