Despite these unpromising foundations, the islands of Britain and Ireland, together with more than 6,000 lesser islets that make up our archipelago, contain some of the most diverse, beautiful and wildlife-rich landscapes and seas on our planet.<br />This book will explore the fascinating relationships within and between species who make their home on our beautiful isles.</p><p>Each chapter focuses on a particular kind of wild space. Britain and Ireland are dominated by a wide variety of grasslands from lowland water meadows to upland moors, and we will see how these human-shaped, semi-natural landscapes thrum with insect, bird and mammal life. Life requires water to flourish, and streams and rivers carry freshwater through our landscape, creating unique ecosystems and interrelations within and beside these waters, which are revealed in a third section. While Britain and Irelands woodlands are comparatively thin on the ground compared with most of continental Europe, we will see some of the forests and trees that remain are unusually ancient and, great repositories of life. Finally, of course, we are surrounded by sea, and our position on the continental shelf before it plunges into the depths of the Atlantic Ocean gives rise to an often overlooked plenty of marine life. A glorious richness divided into five breathtaking sections.</p><p>In Wild Isles, the latest Sunday Times bestselling book by Patrick Barkham, the beauty and diversity of nature in the British Isles are brought to life. Through stunning photography and engaging narrative, Barkham explores the various habitats and the intricate ecology that defines them.</p><p>For fans of Martin Stevens (Sensory Ecology, Behaviour, and Evolution), Jonnie Hughes (Earthshot), Josh Young (Expedition Deep Ocean), Matt Kaplan (The Science of Monsters), and Nigel Henbest (Philips Stargazing 2024 Month-by-Month Guide to the Night Sky Britain & Ireland).</p><p>HarperCollins 2023</p>...148865Wild Isles: The book of the BBC TV series presented by David Attenborough385385https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-wild-isles-1/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1767091/faae4f0f-c219-4236-b6ce-efc3ca17b47b.jpg?v=638338906510930000InStockMXN99999DIAudiolibro20239780008359348_W3siaWQiOiJkMDkwMDY5NS00YTdlLTQ4ZDYtODRiZC02YWUyOTI5YzgzY2EiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjM5MCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjAsInNlbGxpbmdQcmljZSI6MzkwLCJpbmNsdWRlc1RheCI6dHJ1ZSwicHJpY2VUeXBlIjoiV2hvbGVzYWxlIiwiY3VycmVuY3kiOiJNWE4iLCJmcm9tIjoiMjAyNC0xMi0wMVQwMDowMDowMFoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlLCJpc0VsaWdpYmxlRm9yQ3JlZGl0VHJpYWwiOnRydWUsImNyZWRpdFB1cmNoYXNlUHJpY2UiOjF9XQ==9780008359348_<p>This beautifully illustrated overview of the wildlife of the British Isles showcases the diversity of our plant and animal life.</p><p>Wild Isles is a celebration of the wildlife found on a relatively modest collection of islands positioned at a latitude so northerly to be unattractive to many animals and plants.
