Britain’s gardens are a vast, living landscape and the home to hundreds of species of birds. Learn to pay attention to these visitors to your own garden or local park and you’ll have a front-row seat to the unfolding drama that is the garden bird’s year.As dawn breaks across your back garden, if you were paying attention, you would notice that the robin and the blackbird are always the first birds to arrive. These ground hunters have large eyes, so don’t mind the dim light of the early morning. And that’s just the beginning of what you can learn watching your own back garden. Ornithologist Mike Toms has spent a year avidly observing his own garden, and the result is a comprehensive picture of the lives of garden birds.From the crowded yet quiet January garden populated by migratory fieldfares and bramblings, to the riotous gardens of spring, filled with songbirds competing for mates, the garden ecosystem changes throughout the year. Learn to spot these changes, to greet the arrival of the swifts in May and the new crop of fledgling goldfinches and blackbirds in June, and you’ll find a new world opening up to you.A Garden Bird’s Year is the perfect introduction to this world. Supremely readable, it explains biology and behaviour to paint a picture of the lives of common bird species, while also offering practical information for watching and feeding the birds in your own backyard. Toms details birds’ preferences for particular plants, seeds and feeders, so you can learn to attract different species to your own garden. He also charts fascinating recent adaptations – urban birds sleep later than their rural counterparts, probably because cities are on average a few degrees warmer, and they sing either earlier or later, to avoid competing with local traffic; and the balance of migratory birds to Britain is being affected by the world’s changing climate. Many species of garden birds are threatened, but there is much that each one of us can do to support them, to attract them, and to help them thrive through the year.

Our obsession with land is the driving force behind human history. It has sparked revolutions and fuelled economic booms as well as financial crises.

It has become the linchpin of the world''s banking system and it affects everything from soaring housing prices to geopolitical tensions. From the speculative land grabs of colonial America to China''s modern-day real estate crisis, this gripping narrative shows how the economics of land can make and break families, businesses, and even entire nations.This is the book for anyone who wants to see beyond markets and money to the hidden game being played out on the ground beneath our feet.

Jak se vyrovnat s životem, když se narodíte na prahu komunistického puče osmačtyřicátého roku a následujícího hororu totalitních padesátých let? Jak si vytvořit vztah k domovu, máte-li matku cizinku a otce, jenž se cítí jako Rakušan staré monarchie a svým židovským i buržoazním původem nese stigma třídního nepřítele? A proč je filosofování u rodinného stolu o dobru a zlu i objev "smrtící síly” poezie v době politického tání šedesátých let dobrou výbavou pro zápas s "inženýry lidských duší”? V rozhovoru s publicistkou Lenkou Jaklovou nakladatel, politolog a vášnivý "kazatel" Alexander Tomský hledá kontinuitu svého životního příběhu mezi dětstvím a dospíváním v rodném kraji, politickým exilem v Anglii a kulturní aktivitou za společenskou a politickou obrodu české společnosti po listopadu 1989. A jako bytostný konzervativec, poučený anglickým pragmatismem a vyznávající svobodu i tradici evropské civilizace, hlásá nepříjemné pravdy a burcuje na záchranu našeho světa. Ve vzpomínkách na exilový zápas s komunistickým režimem a na četné kolegy a spolupracovníky (Pavel Tigrid, Rio Preisner, Vilém Prečan, Anastáz Opasek, básník Jiří Gruša či anglický filosof Roger Scruton) se Tomský vrací do období studené války, kdy v Londýně založil nakladatelství Rozmluvy - a organizoval pašování jeho knih - a také stejnojmennou literární revui, v níž se nacházelo to nejlepší z českého i západního konzervativního myšlení. Během více než třiceti let, která uplynula od pádu "železné opony”, svou neúprosnou publicistikou zdůrazňuje Alexander Tomský základní smysl individuálního i pospolitého života, konzervatismus zdravého rozumu, jejž opět ohrožují budovatelé staronové utopie společenské a sociální spravedlnosti. Platí ovšem, že žádnou společnost nelze zlepšovat bez vzájemné oddanosti národního společenství a bez morální výchovy k odpovědnosti jednotlivce. Teprve když pochopíme život jako dar, svět jako zázrak, ráno jako počátek dobrodružné cesty, druhého člověka jako radostné setkání a příležitost, stávají se obyčejné věci neobyčejnými.

“A mesmerizing tale like no other.”—Priyanka Kumar, author of Conversations with Birds“A beautiful book. The writing about birds—their songs and sounds, what birds mean to us, the wonder and joy they evoke in us—is among the most original, insightful, and enjoyable I’ve read.”—James Macdonald Lockhart, author of Wild Air: In Search of BirdsongThis captivating memoir takes readers into the eccentric world of competitive bird-calling—following the coming-of-age story of two boys who found their voice in the natural world.This captivating book brings together two birds of a feather: Jean and Johnny, boys from very different worlds growing up in a small village in France. Jean is the genteel pharmacist’s son, dressed in his Sunday best; Johnny’s father is a rough, working-class sheep herder, always with the odor of animals clinging to him. Each year, over three hundred bird species visit their village, which intersects a major migratory flyway.The two boys’ stories converge when Jean enters a bird-calling contest. He places second, and at only eleven years old becomes a child celebrity on the bird-calling circuit. Then Johnny starts to compete as well. At the annual bird festival, both boys are standouts, and a long, admiring rivalry develops between them, eventually culminating in the European championships.As they evolve as performers, the two boys’ identities become more distinct: Jean is soft-spoken, while Johnny likes to play to the crowd. While most of their competitors are adult men, hunters who learned to call birds for sport, the two boys are fascinated with the pure beauty of birdsong, and in trying to transcend themselves through imitating birds. Their shared passion develops into an enduring partnership as performers, and they go on to tour the world in concert as the Bird Singers.This is a story as much about friendship as it is about birdsong. The setting is timeless and bucolic, with long walks to small village schools, games of pick-up soccer, and father-son birding trips. The chapters, which bounce back and forth between the two narrators, are woven through with descriptions of colorful characters in the bird-calling competition circuit and the kind of ornithological detail that can only come from a true passion for birds. There is poetry in the description of the different birds, from common seagulls to thrushes and bluethroats and nightingales, and something like communion in the way Jean and Johnny understand the feathered friends they imitate.Unique, evocative, and cinematic, The Bird Singers is the story of an unlikely friendship, sparked by a desire to speak with the avian world.
