Over forty years ago 'BB' set off with his landrover and early caravan to wander through the lanes and by-ways of Western England. From badger-watching to listening to nightingales, from the green forest of Savernake to the high cliffs of Gurnard's Head in Cornwall, through the woods of Dewlish in Dorset, the deep lanes and secret inlets of Devon, 'BB' with his wife and their little Pekinese travelled as the spirit took them. Naturalist first and foremost, 'BB' captures the scents and country scenes around him - butterflies, dog roses, humming-birds, hawk-moths, stonechats, great green grasshoppers and slow flying sand martins. These and so much more are recorded.
