Richard Fuller offers the reader a glimpse of the fascinating variety of wildlife to be found on his farm in the Yorkshire Wolds. He took over as farm manager in 1974 and has worked hard to combine modern productive farming methods with his conservation objectives. The author's enthusiastic interest in the wildlife surrounding him has enabled him to identify the opportunities to protect and expand important habitats on the farm. The success of his activities has been recognised on several occasions when he has received various awards for his high standards of husbandry and achievements in conservation. The secret lives of the birds, mammals and insects, and the delicacy of the wildflowers to be found at Givendale throughout the year are recorded in the author's photographs. He has written an accompanying text describing life on the farm and in the surrounding countryside throughout the seasons, emphasizing how farming can run in harmony with the natural life of the countryside.
