BIRDLAND: A JOURNEY AROUND BRITAIN ON THE WING (PB)

Journalist and lifelong birder Jon Gower explores our intimate connection with the bird life around us. From the symphonic song of the wren to the clack of a puffin’s beak and from epic migrations to sunset murmurations. Whether rare or abundant, Gower visits some of the best places in Britain to watch birds. He charts the many changes to Britain’s bird life over the last 50 years, as the countryside has seemingly emptied and in many ways fallen silent. He considers the effects of the climate emergency and looks at work being done to mitigate these developments.
