BBC Wildlife
A practical and inspirational introduction to observing, understanding and studying the natural world, written by TV wildlife expert, Nick Baker
Being a naturalist is about combining different skills, tricks of the trade and investigative techniques. The First-Time Naturalist is the ultimate reference book for budding naturalists of all ages. Drawing on his experience from all over the world, Nick focuses on how you can find animals in the field, by interpreting tracks and signs, setting bait, listening for sounds, and the best ways to watch them.
Gerald and Lee Durrell's The Amateur Naturalist was first published in 1982 and quickly became a classic. Based on this concept, Nick's book will inspire a new generation of naturalists to make the most of the world around them. From communicating with wild animals to catching bugs or setting up an aquarium, this is the book to teach you how. With information on how to get started, Nick then goes on to guide you through:
· Choosing the necessary equipment, kit and clothing
· Hands-on activities and investigations that can be done at home
· An introduction to all the major animal groups – mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians, fish, insects and other invertebrates, as well as plants, trees and fungi
Fact-packed, and brimming with practical tips and techniques, this is the perfect family reference guide for all up-and-coming naturalists.
