Green Guide to Birds Of Britain And Europe

By: Jim Flegg

Bloomsbury Green Guides are portable handbooks to the most commonly found species in Britain and Europe. With their diversity of form, colour, behaviour and song, birds are an endless source of fascination, but telling apart the different thrushes, finches, wagtails, warblers, tits and terns often stumps novices. The Green Guide to Birds makes identifying them easy for beginners and amateur naturalists alike. · Beautiful colour illustrations of the 150 species most common in Britain and Europe · Detailed description of plumage, behaviour, calls, songs and habitat to aid identification · Includes a comprehensive introduction with information on practical birdwatching and conservation, as well as a photo gallery new to this edition

The Knights Came Riding

By: Jim Nicolson

Seumas McKinnon has just retired from an advertising job in Melbourne, Australia. He would be free to travel overseas, as a widower with no attachments--except for his son, Alasdair, a successful lawyer. Although they're grown men, Seumas and Alasdair share a strong dependency. And even though Seumas loves his son he decides it's time for some time apart. He heads to Scotland's legendary and bilingual Isle of Skye, where he hopes to embrace his familial roots and learn some Gaelic along the way. Initially, the separation is hard on both of them, but soon, Seumas meets Morag, a lovely, charming woman whom he immediately finds attractive. They strike up a relationship, even though both know he plans to return to Australia. Back home, Alasdair meets someone too--Annie O'Hare, a physiotherapist recently returned from Hong Kong. Initially, she refuses to take him seriously. Apart father and son seem to thrive. Eventually, Seumas returns home, happy to feel some distance from his clingy son. Then a tragic and nearly fatal accident occurs, which bonds the McKinnon boys more than ever before. Perhaps Seumas's trip to Scotland was in vain? Or perhaps his absence gave him a chance to appreciate the true importance of love and family?

Long Creek

By: Jim Nicolson

In a haunting romance set in Australia's far north in the middle of the twentieth century, Calum, a white ringer (cowboy), and Doreen, a mixed-descent girl, never once doubt their love even though, as a couple, they're disparaged by most whites. Calum joins a cattle drive after he's proven that he can handle both himself and the wild horse he is given to ride. >p>Enter Doreen, who has just been rescued by her mum from a mission school where she was treated badly by the Big Father. A chance encounter brings them together for the first time, but both of them believe their meeting was destined, regardless of what lies ahead for them. Through their experiences and those of the people around them, the racial discrimination that marked Australia's twentieth century the tragedy of Australia's Stolen Generation, the murder of Aborigines, and the abduction and rape of Aboriginal girls becomes the backdrop for this powerful love story. Long Creek offers an uplifting and beautiful romance and provides insight into the cattle-ranching life in a sparsely populated, beautiful, and unforgiving land.

Watching Birds

By: James Fisher

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Watching Birds

By: James Fisher

This revised edition of the late James Fisher's much praised Watching Birds is the work of Dr Jim Flegg, Director of the British Trust for Ornithology. In his Preface Dr Flegg writes: "It is a daunting task to revise the bird book on which you cut your teeth: it is the surest measure of the man who wrote it that what is needed, after thirty-odd years, is an updating and not a sweeping revision." Among James Fisher's deservedly popular writings Watching Birds was probably the most read and consulted. After several reprints (published by Penguin Books) he planned to re-write it, and it is wholly appropriate that the work should now be done by Dr Flegg who, like the original author, has done much to help arouse and stimulate a widening interest in watching and understanding the life and world of birds. It is an indication of that interest today that radio and TV programmes (in which Dr Flegg has frequently participated) have audiences of millions. Such numbers are hardly surprising since few leisure activities offer as effective or as gratifying an antidote to the pressures of modern life as birdwatching - and few can be as readily and inexpensively pursued at almost any time, anywhere. Watching Birds has been an introduction and an item of basic equipment to tens of thousands of birdwatchers in the past, and this new and revised edition is assured of an even wider audience."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
