Hidden Nature: Uncovering the UK's Wildlife Kindle Edition
In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks John MuirThis is a book about Britains wildlife; how to discover it, and the adventures we can have with it. Its aim is to show that you dont have to travel to the nether reaches of the Arctic or the deepest corners of the Amazon rainforest to experience weird and wonderful creatures they are right here, on our doorstep.In a world where nature is slowly being replaced by technology and material things, every single one of us could do with appreciating the flora and fauna that we have. To spend time in the outdoors, exploring, searching and learning; teaching ourselves that there is life beyond our laptop screens. And it needs our help. Every day we lose more species, more habitatbut how are we meant to know what to save if we dont know what we will lose?This book is about just that. Written by a young conservationist who hasnt quite grown up, it details her small adventures travelling the UK in search of wildlife encounters, often on a shoestring budget. From ancient forests and coastal wilderness, to bustling city streets and suburban back gardens, nature is everywhere if you know where to look. Featuring unique illustrations and photography, Britains wild things will inspire you to get out there and discover the UKs hidden wilderness.

About the Author
Isla Hodgson is a Zoologist, wildlife journalist and freelance researcher for natural history film. She is currently based in Scotland, studying for a PhD in conservation conflict (essentially a big excuse for some adventuring).
She has a strong passion for conservation, and her popular blog Where The Wild Things Live was born from a desire to spark that enthusiasm in others, starting with the wildlife we have at home.
She is never happier than when trudging around in the outdoors, preferably with a dog – although she is still working on that…

A beautiful fun inspiring book, for any who appreciate nature even outside of the UK! Please check the sample, which fascinated me enough to buy the book. It may bring out the inner adventurer or zoologist in you as well, and my kids have become inspired too.
