"Birdwatching Walks in the Lake District by David Hindle and John Wilson is all you need for successful ornithology expeditions and just fun, stimulating walks in one of the most beautiful and most visited scenic places in England. Many poets have described the beauty and been inspired by nature in this area. The authors have detailed 30 walks in the National Park and surrounding areas of Eden Valley and Cumbrian Coast. Their information shows you which bird to look for and their habitats and habits and songs. You will learn background information about the species of the birds and the historical importance of the area of each walk. The color photos of various birds in the last half of the book are beautiful and help you identify and learn about the beautiful foul you see there. A must for anyone hiking in the Lake District of England."
