Wildlife through the Year

Already the author of a dozen books, renowned ornithologist and naturalist Dr Tim Sharrock has been observing and writing about wildlife for over 60 years. From his adopted county of Bedfordshire, his travels have taken him all over the World, west to Mexico, east to Thailand and south to New Zealand. This book follows, season by season, Tim's observations, discoveries, excitements and speculations. From gardens in England to gorillas in Rwanda and whales in the Sea of Cortez, his enthusiasm for the natural world shines forth. This is the ideal bedside book, ready to be consumed in fifty bite-sized chapters. There are also 52 wildlife-themed puzzles and quizzes - one for every week of the year. TV presenter and wildlife expert Bill Oddie says: "Watching wildlife is of course about looking and listening, but it is mainly about being aware. It helps to have a guide or a companion, an expert and a storyteller. Tim Sharrock is perfect for the job. Read this book, and then go and see for yourself."
