Description
The best of British wildlife without the carbon footprint – where to go in search of wildlife by train, bus, bike and on foot.
With carbon footprint now finally seen as a serious issue in the public eye, travelling to see wildlife by car is becoming increasingly hard to justify. This book – a site guide with a difference – offers the solution to this problem.
Featuring over 100 sites in or around 20 towns and cities that can all be accessed by train, bus, bicycle or on foot, Where to Watch Wildlife in Britain is the essential guide to planning a low-carbon itinerary for the perfect wildlife-watching trip. Each site offers either one or two top-tier species or a broader wildlife experience. There are directions for all sites, plus detailed information on travel options, access, species present and when best to visit, along with photographs of the sites and some of the special species you might see.
Whether it’s otters in Carlisle, butterflies in Norfolk, seabird cliffs in coastal Wales or red squirrels in the Highlands, this book tells you where to go and how to get there while minimising your carbon footprint. It's a new and unique way to enjoy Britain's wildlife heritage, and one that we should all embrace.
