Easy Guide to Garden Birds of Britain & Ireland, by Marie Louise Heffernan


Easy Guide to Garden Birds of Britain and Ireland

This is the perfect book of garden bird identification for an absolute beginner with large clear photos. It is the ideal guide to have while watching birds at the bird feeder, in local parks or hedgerows. Short clear descriptions of the key identifying features of each bird are given. Twenty two of the most common birds found in gardens in Britain and Ireland are shown. This book has been designed as a quick and simple way to identify birds for both young children and adults. The author wrote the book originally for her daughter as she was unable to find a simple book that clearly identified common garden birds. With a series of fabulous photos showing each bird and the key differences between the birds clearly described and easily seen in the each photograph, this allows the young or not so young bird watching beginner to know their birds. Soon to be released as an eBook.

Zuzy Bumpbump just wants to live a nice, quiet life where she can work on spaceships and be happy. But her little brother has other plans. Troublesome to the core, Flinch leads his older sister on escapades throughout the galaxy that land them in sticky situations and lots of hot water.

Follow the antics of Zuzy and Flinch in this fun Firefly-meets-magic serial.






About the Author
Samantha Warren is a fantasy and science fiction author who spends her days immersed in dragons, spaceships, and vampires. In the name of research, she enlisted the help of her pet dragon Anethesis and together they built a ark-like spaceship. Three trips through a hole in the time-space continuum allowed the pair to explore the universe decades into the past and eons into the future. They discovered how life would be without Earth and were forced to run from alien law enforcement when their ship was deemed unspaceworthy. In the long run, the constant space repairs cut into Samantha's sock fetish fund, so she sold her ark for half-price to a slimy creature that made Jabba the Hutt look like Brad Pitt.

After her years of traveling, she returned to her roots. When she isn't writing or reading, she is milking cows or trying to feed them Pop-Tarts and FiberOne bars (they like neither). She also spends her spare time collecting zombie gnomes, drinking lattes at the Village Cafe, or watching any show featuring Gordon Ramsay. Anethesis remains by her side, sleeping away the day and hunting evil cat-eating coyotes by night.
