Book excerpt: "Courageous, visionary, funny."--Isabella Tree "One of the most remarkable figures in British conservation."--Observer "Gow reinvents what it means to be a guardian of the countryside."--Guardian Birds, Beasts and Bedlam recounts the adventures of Britain's favorite maverick rewilder, Derek Gow, and his single-minded mission to save our rarest wildlife--one species at a time. Author of Bringing Back the Beaver and Hunt for the Shadow Wolf, Derek shares his personal, courageous, and highly entertaining tales in Birds, Beasts and Bedlam, including how he raised a sofa-loving wild boar piglet, transported a raging bison bull across the UK, got bitten by a Scottish wildcat, and, together with Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell, restored the ancient white stork to the pioneering Knepp Estate. After a Shetland ewe captured his heart as a boy, Derek grew up to become a farmer with a passion for ancient breeds. When he realized how many of our species were close to extinction--even on his own land--Derek tore down fences literally and metaphorically, transforming his traditional Devon farm into a 300-acre rewilding haven for beavers, water voles, lynx, wildcats, harvest mice, wild boar, and more. A project that is still ongoing today. Birds, Beasts and Bedlam continues the rich tradition of great British nature writing. Passionate, subversive, and unforgettable, it will leave you inspired to support rewilding efforts around the world, in your community, and even in your backyard. "A do-er, not a dreamer, Gow has become one of our most outspoken rewilders."--Countryfile Magazine "In this warm and funny autobiography, [Gow] writes with a whimsical fluency about the moments of humour and pathos in an unusual life."--Country Life "Gow has a fire in his belly. We need more like him."―BBC Wildlife magazine "[Gow's] stories can be bawdy, laugh-out-loud funny, poignant, or even depressing, but they're never dull."―Booklist

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illustrated survey of the world's most endangered birds This illustrated book vividly depicts the most endangered birds in the world and provides the latest information on the threats each species faces and the measures being taken to save them. Today, 571 bird species are classified as critically endangered or endangered, and a further four now exist only in captivity. This landmark book features stunning photographs of 500 of these species—the results of a prestigious international photographic competition organized specifically for this book. It also showcases paintings by acclaimed wildlife artist Tomasz Cofta of the 75 species for which no photos are known to exist. The World's Rarest Birds has introductory chapters that explain the threats to birds, the ways threat categories are applied, and the distinction between threat and rarity. The book is divided into seven regional sections—Europe and the Middle East; Africa and Madagascar; Asia; Australasia; Oceanic Islands; North America, Central America, and the Caribbean; and South America. Each section includes an illustrated directory to the bird species under threat there, and gives a concise description of distribution, status, population, key threats, and conservation needs. This one-of-a-kind book also provides coverage of 62 data-deficient species.

Download or read book Skylarks with Rosie written by Stephen Moss and published by Saraband. This book was released on 2021-03-18 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As spring arrives, Stephen Moss’s Somerset garden is awash with birdsong: chiffchaffs, wrens, robins and more. Overhead, buzzards soar, ravens tumble and the season gathers pace. But this equinox is unlike any other. As the nation goes into lockdown, Stephen records the wildlife around his home, with his fox-red Labrador, Rosie, by his side. When old routines fall away, and blue skies are no longer crisscrossed by contrails, they discover the bumblebees, butterflies and birdsong on their local patch. This evocative account underlines how a global crisis changed the way we relate to the natural world, giving us hope for the future. And it puts down a marker for a new normal: when, during that brief but unforgettable spring, nature gave us comfort, hope and joy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: London, England - 1956 Devon Stone, best-selling author of murder mysteries, has had a target on his back over the years for various reasons. He thought that was now in the distant past. But he was mistaken. A dear friend who had been murdered a few years earlier had suspected that her late husband’s death was more than just an accident. And she was correct. A casual visit to an exhibition of World War II wartime photography triggers the conclusion to a plot that began as that war was coming to an end. A day at the steeplechase races, including a shocking equine occurrence, brings Devon into the crosshairs once again as he learns that a violent and dangerous person thought long-since dead is very much alive. A cold-blooded, sadistic assassin is drawn into the narrative by sheer happenstance. Following a brazen, brutal murder attempt of another of Devon’s friends, he discovers that there is more than one nefarious person on his trail. A turbulent past intertwines with a surprising future. Devon Stone must now step up his game if he hopes to remain alive. And so begins another cat and mouse game...but who is the cat? And who is the mouse?
