THE BESTSELLING BIRDWATCHING CLASSIC - 20TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION

'A delightful ode to the wild world outside the kitchen window - leaves you with the warm feeling that a shared love conquers all.' 
The Daily Telegraph

'A witty, perceptive book; thoughtful, instructive and full of simple wisdom.' 
The Daily Mail

Look out the window. See a bird. Enjoy it. CONGRATULATIONS! You are now a bad birdwatcher.

Anyone who has ever gazed up at the sky or stared out of the window knows something about birds. In this fun, eye-opening and inspiring book, award-winning nature writer Simon Barnes paints a riveting picture of how birdwatching has framed his life and can help us all to a better understanding of our place on this planet.

How to be a Bad Birdwatcher shows why birdwatching is not the preserve of twitchers, but one of the simplest, cheapest and most rewarding pastimes around.
