The essential guide to finding and identifying birds, animals, invertebrates and plants in London. Includes lovely sketches of the animals with maps and directions to the key sites, as well as further reading and websites.
Many people are unaware that London is rich in wildlife, and that many of the most interesting and spectacular species can be seen within a few minutes' walk of the tourist trail.
Part one of this essential guide describes key wildlife sites, from the centre of town to the suburbs, and what you can expect to see there, including spectacular wildfowl along the Thames and birds of prey in the city, to herds of deer and butterfly and wildflower hot-spots.
Part two is a fully illustrated colour identification guide to 500 of the most common or remarkable species of animals, birds, invertebrates and plants found in London.
