Australian Wildlife on Your Doorstep

This unique book, with its hundreds of images of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, insects and spiders, encourages readers to open their eyes to the wonders of nature and to the astounding diversity of wildlife that is never far away. If you thought you knew everything there was to know about your local wildlife and have seen everything there is to see, then think again, but be warned, you’ll never look at wildlife in the same way again! Australian Wildlife On Your Doorstep is packed full of inspiring stories and provides tips on how to discover the wild creatures that might be in your neighbourhood but that you never knew were there. The engaging text provides not only information regarding the lifestyle of each featured species but also includes fascinating and little-known facts about each unique creature. It offers a delightful insight into the natural wonders that can be found close to every Australian home and is an essential addition to the library of every nature enthusiast, whether a long-standing convert or just starting out.
