RSPB The Nature Tracker's Handbook is a complete guide to how to interpret the signs that animals leave behind. The art of nature tracking is very much like learning to read, but instead of reading words the tracker reads traces. Every animal leaves different traces as it goes about its everyday business. If you learn to read the signs left by footprints, leftover food, droppings and scrapes in the earth, you will soon be able to tell the story of an animal's life, packed with fascinating details and hidden meanings. The RSPB Nature Tracker's Handbook explains with extensive photography and detailed diagrams how to find and interpret the evidence that animals leave behind – from a pile of mangled feathers to a delicately nibbled mushroom. Nick Baker also demonstrates useful tracker activities, such as how to mount a discarded nymph skin and how to dissect an owl's pellet to reveal its last meal. There's a nature detective in all of us, so get out there and get tracking.
This biography of acclaimed Canadian artist York Wilson (1907-1984) is written by Lela Wilson, his wife of 51 years. The biography documents Wilson's art education and commercial art career, and explores his entry into the Toronto art scene, his quick rise to local and national fame, his leading role in Canadian art, and his forging of an international reputation as a serious, innovative painter. From the mid-1950s to 1970, York Wilson cemented his reputation as Canada's pre-eminent muralist. In Toronto his public commissions included murals for the O'Keefe Centre for the Performing Arts, the Salvation Army, Imperial Oil, Bell Telephone, and Central Hospital. He also completed murals in Thunder Bay, Montreal, Ottawa, and Timmins.
A first sighting of an unexpected bird or an elusive mammal is a real thrill and can encourage a lifetime's interest in nature. This new RSPB book is perfect for anyone who enjoys a walk in the woods or a coastal stroll. It isn't a site guide directing you to the same old sites, instead The Great British Wildlife Hunt encourages you to actively find species everywhere you go, by learning to recognise landscape features, habitats and niches, and spot other signs that a species is nearby. Each species has a score to inspire friendly competition on your days out.
