  Aimed at both the general reader and amateur naturalist, this guide offers information on observing and identifying 150 of the most commonly encountered species of garden wildlife in Britain and Europe. Concise, fact-filled descriptions give the main features of the species, each of which is illustrated with a detailed, colour painting. The introduction contains a comprehensive section on the ecology of the garden and offers practical suggestions for ways to attract wildlife to it using particular plants, introducing a pond and creating special environments for birds and other creatures. The book can be used as a home reference or a pocket companion in the field.
