Ireland, the Emerald Isle, is famous for its checkerboard landscape
of green fields and hedgerows. Its coast showcases sandy beaches,
mudflats and saltmarshes, Atlantic Rainforests, rocky shores and
cliffs, all home to a staggering variety of wildlife. Ireland's
coastal waters are among the best in Europe to see whales and
dolphins and other rare marine animals. The Crossbill Guide Ireland
is the authoritative wildlife and nature travel guidebook to that
island and includes both the Republic of Ireland and Northern
Ireland. The book provides insights into how this varied landscape
came into being with a description of its flora and fauna. The book
combines this background with carefully selected hiking and driving
routes that cover the best places to discover Ireland's wildlife
and ecosystems. If you want to explore Ireland's wild side, this is
the book you need.

Nature Unpacked is the ultimate travelling companion for those visiting the southern African bush – whether for the first time or for the tenth. Much more than a field guide to the wildlife of the region, it provides insight into the behaviour and adaptation of the more common mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs, insects, spiders and scorpions that are found here. Identification of common trees and shrubs is made simple by way of easily accessible descriptions and close-up representative images.
FEATURES THAT MAKE THIS BOOK A MUST-HAVE:
An all-in-one guide that covers the most common mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs, insects, spiders, scorpions, trees and flowering plants found in the region.
More than 900 stunning photographs and reader-friendly text reveal what the creatures of the African bush do and why they do it.
Information is interpretative rather than just dry facts typical of other field guides.
The colourful and creative layout allows the reader to engage visually with the content.
Other features include distribution maps, animal spoor, icons and Quick ID tables.
