Birdwatching walks in Bowland

David Hindle and John Wilson BEM

One of our best selling walking books.


The Forest of Bowland is a truly stunning and immensely important Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Many species of birds – some of them rare – are there to be enjoyed within the varied habitats of the Bowland landscape, a fact that is celebrated to the full in this superb new book.

Over 30 scenic walks cover the whole of the area, from Lancaster to Pendle, and from Preston to Settle, each one designed to give the walker the chance to encounter a wide range of different birdlife in a magnificent Bowland setting.

`The authors clearly know their area and their subject – the descriptions of the landscape, its bird life and the detailed routes to follow make this one of the best guide books I have come across.' Garstang Courier

The sheer variety of birds to be found in the Bowland area is quite remarkable and with this book it should be made a somewhat more pleasurable experience trying to observe them... the site descriptions are concise and informative, while the bird information is refreshingly far from over-optimistic ... No outdoors enthusiast should be without a copy of this fine guide. Lancaster Guardian

`The combination of noted local historian and naturalist, David Hindle, and John Wilson, the first warden of the RSPB Leighton Moss Nature Reserve at Silverdale, has ensured a most enlightening and entertaining work.' Clitheroe Advertiser & Times
