Time spent outdoors is always a valuable investment. It uplifts spirits, ignites imagination, and, as mounting research demonstrates, significantly enhances our physical and mental well-being. Rhythms of Nature celebrates this essential bond with the natural world and explores ways to rediscover it.

After a distinguished career in conservation, Ian Carter relocates to a secluded farmhouse nestled amidst the low hills of mid-Devon, between Exmoor and Dartmoor. Here, he embarks on a novel exploration of the local countryside. He delves into the edible species, follows meandering streams (wherever they may lead), and stealthily traverses private estates. He experiments with rewilding the garden, ventures on nocturnal rambles, and witnesses the captivating transformations of the seasons in ultra-high definition.

Building upon the author's acclaimed work, Human, Nature, this captivating and contemplative book presents straightforward ideas for reviving a sense of wonder in our surroundings. A tribute to the oft-overlooked and untidy places that can enrich our lives, it resonates with individuals seeking a deeper connection with wildlife or eager to discover the more secluded corners of our landscape.
