Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Bridget MacCaskill has been observing otters for many years and studies undertaken with her late husband Don resulted in books and a film about otters and their environment. Otters are fascinating and delightful creatures but to watch them in their natural habitat requires immense patience over a long period of time and an appreciation of their way of life. For those of us who wish to know more, this book presents an intimate account of an extended otter family. It is written in the form of a story by an unseen observer and tells of the lives of two otter cubs from birth until adulthood, their relationship with their parents and the other otter family on the loch, and their interaction with some of the other creatures there. Enter Coll and Coire, Kyle and Kelpie. All the events in this book are based on actual observation, either from watching the animals themselves or by interpreting signs of their presence. The result is a book that is true to nature and not in the least sentimental. But it conveys a serious message - we must be aware of the need to minimize pollution, disruption of habitat and other harmful intrusions if we are to benefit from the presence of these wonderful creatures. The book should appeal to everyone with an interest in otters and all lovers of wildlife and the natural landscape. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1995). 1995 1st edition. 8vo (232 x 162mm). Pp176. Colour photographs, bibliography. Minor faults. Good-plus in like dust-wrapper. Good observations of Highland wildlife with foxes, wild and semi-tame, as a theme. "An enchanting successor to (Bridget MacCaskill's) Nature Watch television film and book on the Highland otter." Bridgett and Don MacCaskill "have been nurturing the foxes in their region in the central Scottish Highlands for as many years as they have been observing the otters on a west coast sea loch, which they chronicled (in a previous) book. But foxes belong to a persecuted species. While sheep farmers and gamekeepers attempted to eliminate these beautiful, intelligent and resilient creatures, Bridget and forestor Don were busy rescuing waifs that came their way. Some fox cubs they kept until fully grown in as wild conditions as possible, others like Rufus and Rusty became engaging pets. This book fits together a number of fox encounters into one continuous story and describes the creatures with which they share the wild glens and hills - the golden eagles, the badgers, and a very special wildcat. It is both a brilliantly observed and touching account - funny, moving and utterly surprising by turns, not least when the author recalls her heart-wrenching experience of being lowered by rope down a sheer cliff fce into an eagle eyrie where a full-grown eaglet responds to her affectionate greeting and gentle caresses." Chapters include: Wild waifs; Glimpses of gold; Death on the moor; Wild Cat Island; Runaway Rufus; Midday madness; Flight of the eagles; Drama in the woods; The call of the wild; Full circle; Epilogue. An appendix deals with the Wild Mammals (Protection) Bill 1995. A good read at a good price. .

Paperback. Condition: New. In the endless struggle between man and nature, Bridget and Don MacCaskill's Highland home has always been a haven for injured and orphaned wildlife, from red deer to wildcats. The story begins with the rescue of two near-starved fox cubs called Rufus and Rusty, victims of their species' vicious reputation, and charts their often amusing journey into adulthood under the watchful eye of their new human 'parents'. Along the way, they are regularly joined by other wild creatures in need of the MacCaskills' help - badgers, birds of prey and a majestic golden eagle a mong them. The Blood is Wild is a touching account of the precarious existence of wildlife in the Highlands.
