Because of British Columbia’s mountainous terrain, much of the water in the province moves down-hill, tumbling and turning towards the sea. Moving water contains a variety of life from the larval stone-flies, mayflies and caddis flies that cling to rocks to the Harlequin Ducks that court and nest along fast-moving mountain streams. There are over sixteen thousand lakes in the province.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn an imaginary canoe trip around a lake, the authors introduce us to cattails and bulrushes, Spotted Frogs and Western Toads, and, of course, the rich bounty of insect life, including jewel-like dragonflies. Last, but not least, there are the bogs and fens of the province, filled with mosses and other plants, and the hot springs scattered through-out the mountains of British Columbia.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Richard Cannings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48283782512891,"sku":"9781926706177","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9781926706177.jpg?v=1772488053","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/world-of-fresh-water-9781926706177","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
