Hi everyone! I was hoping some of you might have some recommendations for wildlife picture books with beautiful artwork. So far I've read and loved Stellaluna by Janell Cannon and Owl Babies by Martin Waddell. Thanks so much for any ideas you have!

These may not be quite what you are looking for, but, I remember thinking they were pretty. 
I start the year at my school with Raccoons and Ripe Corn by Jim ArnoskyThe Raccoon family come out of the forest at night to feed in the corn field and each beautifully illustrated page shows other creatures. Lots to talk about.
Thanks so much everyone! I'm going to find all of these books. I like to knit stuffed animals so I'm thinking of trying to knit some animal characters from each book and donate the books and animals to charity.

The illustrations for Raccoons and Ripe Corn are indeed wonderful.
has beautiful illustrations and a sweet story about friendship.
Jim Arnosky’s books are beautiful and accurate too.

Song of the Water Boatman and Other Pond Poems, and others by Joyce Sidman.
I don't know if they'd lend themselves to craft projects, but they are excellent wildlife books.
