Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

Acclaimed naturalist and birdwatcher Stephen Moss brings us a year in the life of Britain''s favourite bird - the robin.

In The Robin Moss records a year of observing the robin both close to home and in the field to shed light on the hidden life of this apparently familiar bird. We follow its life cycle from the time it enters the world as an egg, through its time as a nestling and juvenile, to the adult bird; via courtship, song, breeding, feeding, migration - and ultimately, death. At the same time, we trace the robin''s relationship with us: how did this bird - one of more than 300 species in its huge and diverse family - find its way so deeply and permanently into our nation''s heart and its social and cultural history? It''s a story that tells us as much about ourselves as it does about the robin itself.

No other bird is quite so ever-present and familiar, so embedded in our culture, as the robin. But how much do we really know about this bird?

''There is no doubt that Moss''s book, with its charming cover and quaint illustrations, will make it into many a stocking this year'' The Times
