Acclaimed Florida-based writer and photographer Kirsten Hines sat down in the ABC7 studio today to talk about her new book, "Wild Florida: An Animal Odyssey" and her passion for the wonders of our state's wildlife. Interview with acclaimed author Kirsten Hines on new book "Wild Florida"
Kirsten Hines started out as a wildlife biologist, but pretty early on found herself drawn to telling stories with images and words about the natural world, rather than collecting data about it. Her photographs and writings have since appeared in numerous exhibitions and publications, including eight books the latest of which is \“Wild Florida: An Animal Odyssey.\” It’s like a conversational field guide that explores ecological concepts like the \“why\” behind Florida’s animal diversity, and its blending of critters from the tropics with those from North America.
