Side-lights of Nature in Quill and Crayon

Nature's smaller stories, caught by lamplight. Tickner Edwardes turns his Sussex eye to the sidelong wonders most walkers miss: the private lives of hedgerow birds, moths at the window, village creatures going about their nights and seasons. Each essay is a small illumination, sketched with the warmth and precision that made him beloved. Fireside natural history in the best English tradition, easy to dip into and hard to leave. Light the lamp and let the quiet observations gather.
