Inspired by a traditional Japanese calendar which divides the year into segments of four to five days, this book guides you through a year of 72 seasons as they manifest in the British Isles.
From 'Snowdrops emerge' in the first days of January to 'Tree skeletons and sky' at the close of the year, each fleeting season is epitomized by some natural phenomenon, be it a plant coming into bud, a burst of birdsong, or a cobweb spangled by dew. Drawing on folklore and tradition, herbal medicine and natural history, this is a book to give, to treasure, to dip into, and to inspire your own regular acts of noticing nature as it flourishes and fades and rises again, through the seasons.
The authors of this book met by chance on Twitter, and together launched Noticing Nature: the British microseason project (@Naturalcalendar) on which this book is based.
KIERA CHAPMAN is a political ecologist and nature writer.
ROWAN JAINES is a lecturer in human environmental geography at the University of Sheffield.
