Synopsis "Noteworthy Nature: In and around Horsham town"
Noteworthy Nature around Horsham town includes information about natural history sightings at locations in or near to Horsham, West Sussex. The author has made nature notes over many years and has extracted details from her observations to enable her to write this book. She hopes that readers will become enthusiastic about nature and progress to observe the nature around their own gardens and beyond. This book tells of local places where the author has seen birds, flowers, insects, fauna and fungi. In her own garden she has encountered some interesting wildlife. In a local Nature Reserve, that she has visited often and regularly over a number of years, she describes how sometimes a bird not usually seen at this reserve might visit fleetingly. This can be a source of new knowledge and excitement. There are though, plenty of resident birds, flowers and fungi to be seen at the reserve throughout the year yielding much to learn about. Another chapter describes a different wetland area, other natural history, and a new wildlife garden. She relates how she has seen unexpected caterpillars and insects amongst the many herbal and other plants in the Museum garden. The author explains how vital Horsham's Green Spaces are not only for the people, but also for wildlife, as there is much to be found there. These places are important also as a 'Corridor' for wildlife to continue to access more territory and connect to other wildlife habitats. The final chapter is about the wilding successes after twenty years of re-wilding at the Knepp estate, and shows how natural and diverse habitats have evolved and that rare wildlife has begun to settle and breed there. The book provides some further information about local places good to visit. At the end of the book there are a small selection of the author's paintings and sketches of wildlife.
