I'm happy to announce that I have two great "Nature of the Meadowlands" events are scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 1. 

At 11 a.m. at Wild Birds Unlimited in Paramus, I'll give a short talk and slide show about this new coffee table book on the history and natural history of the Meadowlands and its amazing comeback. I'll also sign copies of the book -- on sale at Wild Birds Unlimited, at 189 Route 17 South in Paramus.

From 1 to 2 p.m., Governor Tom Kean (who wrote the book's foreword) and I will be signing copies at Bookends in Ridgewood -- a rescheduling of the signing originally slated for Nov. 7, when we had that early snowstorm. Bookends is located at 211 East Ridgewood Avenue in Ridgewood.

More on the book here.
