Frog Routes, Polka Dot Newts and Other Treasures of Irish Nature

Beneath our feet, in our hedgerows and trees, and under our seas lie complex communities of beings that go unseen and unheard by us humans. Soil is the stuff of life itself, bustling with microbes, fungi, beetles and earthworms. Ferns, primroses, wild violets and canopy leaves are the framework for the hidden power behind a butterfly's wing or the singing of a wren. Discover the extraordinary mating rituals of frogs, hares and hen harriers. Explore the incredible secret language of mice in their epic daily battle to survive and avoid the swoop of the sparrowhawk. Here, Anja Murray fills us with awe for the unfolding world of Ireland's wild plants and animals through the seasons, their fascinating stories revealing the wondrous webs of life that sustain us. 'Each vignette is a whisper from the wild – part ecological insight, part quiet invocation – reminding us of the intricate kinship we share with all that crawls, roots, glides and grows in the soil of this island.'
