Hello,
I wonder if there are so called 'nature magazines' as a category of magazines. Can you find one in a bookstore or library?
Many thanks.  |

Actually, there is a magazine called Nature. It is a famous natural science magazine. But there is a general category of magazines that deals with nature, wild animals, plants, and so on. There are also nature photography magazines and nature activity (hiking, river rafting, etc.) magazines. |

Yes, I know there's a magazine called Nature.
I wonder what you call the above mentioned magazines -- a nature magazine?
Do you native speakers of English use "a nature magazine" as a genre or catergory (or whatever)?
Thank you. |

I was at the dentist's office and found a nature magazine dated from 1972.
That bookstore has a nice selection of nature magazines. |
