This book is essentially a pictorial montage of all aspects of the life of the Dotterel recorded by myself over almost a couple of decades, from the western Brecon Beacons in South Wales, the Cumbrian Pennines in northern England, the Highlands of Scotland and Finnish Lapland in the high Arctic.



Over 350 colour photographs with black and white sketches cover spring and autumn passage, together with many birds located and nests found during hard days on the high tops. The opportunity has also been taken to feature Dotterel predators and other montane and upland species encountered by the Dotterel in its daily life.



'Dotterel Days' is altogether a fascinating record illustrating the life of the bird in quality photographic landscape format.



All photographs of Schedule 1 birds in the UK featured in this book were taken under license from the relevant authorities.
