My Highland Perthshire
My Highland Perthshire
Thirty years of close observation of all aspects of nature in the area around the author’s family home, stunningly located beside Loch Tay in Highland Perthshire.
The author carefully observes nature’s progress through the seasons, of birth and death, growth and decline and of change over the years through land use and climate change. These observations are recorded throughout with black and white sketches and over a hundred pages of colour plates, including field-guide quality watercolours of flora and fauna.
Vivid descriptions are featured which range from eagles in flight to rabbits playing, from fields of new spring flowers to woodland glades. Written in a very accessible yet informed style, it will appeal to those interested in natural history, Scottish wildlife and countryside as well as visitors to Scotland.
