Steve Backshall’s Wildlife Adventurer’s Guide: A Guide to Exploring Wildlife in Britain [Paperback]

A naturalist’s equivalent to the Dangerous Book for Boys, this book includes tips on everything from beachcombing, snorkelling and building your own hedgehog hotel, to tree climbing, natural foods and how to make traps for insects and mammals. This hands on guide to enjoying nature is filled with practical advice on how to get involved with wildlife.

Focusing mainly on Britain and northern Europe, it’s packed with ideas for wildlife watching and other activities in different habitats, including coast, mountains, heathland, garden, wetland, woodland, and farmland.

Alongside the practical advice on bushcraft and survival are suggestions on how to get close to nature through activities such as mountain biking and climbing.
