Year Of Garden Bees And Bugs
Year Of Garden Bees And Bugs
Every day, just outside your back door, a secret drama is taking place.
A fascinating journey into the secret life of insects, with QR codes to video and audio to bring the creatures to life. Just as birds have yearly rhythms, so do insects, bees, beetles and butterflies. Wildlife experts Dominic Couzens and Gail Ashton discover 52 minibeasts from around the world, every week of the year.
This book reveals a different aspect of the insect world: the house spider building a new web each morning, the vast appetite of ladybirds, the glory of the Stag beetle's maiden flight, the life of the backdoor scorpions in South Africa. Woven into accounts of these creatures’ behaviour are informative nuggets such as Cardinal Wolsey's fear of spiders and how flies can solve murders.
A book for any nature lover.
Hardback, 224 pages.
