The Adventures of Jimmy Skunk

Thornton W. Burgess

The Adventures of Jimmy Skunk is another in the long list children's books by the conservationist, Thornton W. Burgess. In this book, Jimmy Skunk has encounters with Reddy Fox, Peter Rabbit, Unc’ Billy Possum and other acquaintances of his in the Green Meadows and Green Forest. Along the way, we learn some of the habits of Jimmy and his friends and we learn little lessons about life such as the importance of always keeping one's temper, keeping promises and not playing practical jokes. We are also treated to a philosophical discussion by Jimmy Skunk on the advantages of defensive weaponry. (Summary by John Lieder.)

Call of the Kingfisher - Bright...

Nick Penny

Call of the Kingfisher is the enchanting debut from composer and wildlife recordist Nick Penny. This love letter to a short stretch of Northamptonshire's River Nene celebrates all the wild things that live there, especially the kingfishers. Nick has walked beside the river at Oundle for four decades. But for a whole year he gave the waterway all the time it asked for. The more attention he gave it, the more he saw the kingfishers and heard their high whistling calls. Set in a lovely but little-known part of England, Call of the Kingfisher relates a year by the river, the author's experiences there and the different people he meets. Other strands are woven around the elusive feathered protagonist: explorations of local history and landscape, from Roman and Bronze Age sites to watermills and centuries-old stone churches; visits at different times and to different places in the valley; homages to naturalists who lived nearby; forest dawns and dusks listening to the precious song of nightingales. But the background tapestry is the sights and sounds, and greens and browns, of the riverbank, shot through with the blue and orange threads of a kingfisher's glowing feathers.As a composer and wildlife recordist, Nick has a deep interest in sounds in the natural environment. He uses the local landscape and wildlife sounds as inspiration, and brings fresh insights into the sounds of the countryside. The book includes access to a number of high-quality birdsong recordings made alongside the River Nene - audio soundbites of nature's riches, from kingfishers and nightingales to owls and cuckoos. This is a book about the things that can be seen and heard when we approach nature with patience and curiosity. It celebrates people who have used that focus to help preserve wildlife and pass on their knowledge to future generations. Above all, Call of the Kingfisher serves as a call to appreciate what we've got, wherever we are, and to use our ears as much as our eyes when we experience the natural world.

FORAGING GUIDE - Finding and...

Tiffany Snee

What qualities distinguish an excellent forager? 
  
He can detect and discover edible wild plants in his immediate surroundings. 
  
However, this task may sometimes be intimidating, with over 80,000 edible species to choose from.  
However, it is essential that every forager, whether novice or experienced, knows his plants and mushrooms. 
  
All a forager needs is this guide to help him identify edible wild plants and mushrooms in his area. 
  
We selected, discussed, and discovered 50 edible wild plants that a forager may encounter during his adventures. 
  
So, how prepared are you for the foraging revolution? 
  
The hunting and gathering period is returning, and you don't want to be left behind.  
The ability to forage is something that everyone needs at this time. 
  
It would be best if you had all the required instruments in your arsenal. There are several places to get this information, but none are as reliable as a book on the subject.  
  
You need a book like this one that you can rely on to provide you with well-studied and confirmed information. 
  
So grab your book, stuff it in your bag, and let's get started - right now!
