Wildlife of the Pennine hills
Kennedy, Doug2019
Book
Have you ever wondered why a particular bird is found on a particular moor or mountain range or valley? Why a certain plant grows where it does, and nowhere else? The Pennines are a range of magnificent hills which form the spine of England, creating a watershed from which rivers run east and west through a series of upland heaths, moorlands, blanket bogs, woodlands, and limestone pavements. Authors Doug Kennedy and Tim Melling take you on a journey through all of the Pennines fascinating eco-systems, explaining why the geology and landscape has affected the plants which can survive there, and therefore the animals, birds, and insects which thrive or survive in the differing habitats.
