Choosing

Which Mississippi edition do you want?

If you want one thing that covers the whole Mississippi year
The Nature Year is the book plus the posters, the sky calendar, the life list and a weekly note — everything the site knows about Mississippi in one purchase, which is why it costs what the others cost together.
If you want to keep your own record
The journal gives each month a reference side built from Mississippi data and a blank side that stays yours. Undated, so you print it again next year.
If the birds are the reason you go outside
The birding guide profiles the 24 species most consistently recorded in Mississippi, with a month-by-month presence chart and a life list.
If you are planting something this year
The native plants guide covers 45 species for hardiness zones 7a–9b, with bloom windows and what each one feeds.
If you would drive somewhere dark
The night sky guide names Mississippi's 4 darkest places and works the moon into every meteor peak, so you know which nights repay the trip.
