We're always happy to answer any questions or queries you might have, please get in touch using one of the methods below.This book is pure serotonin, and I am genuinely sorry that I’ve finished it, because many times I’ve come to it feeling a bit down and two paragraphs in, I feel like myself again. Encouraging us all to stop, step outside and listen, Be a Birder is both a practical guide and a joyous celebration of these incredible creatures. I have an ebook copy of this but it’s definitely has merit as a book to have as a physical, throw it in your birding bag with your snacks and have it with you on the run.
