Book Overview
In paintings and words, this book portrays a year in the life of Oronsay, a remote Hebridean island that is farmed by the RSPB for the benefit of wildlife. Jane Smith describes her encounters with birds and animals, both wild and domesticated, and the human inhabitants of the island who look after them, in a humorous and personal account.
Her vibrant artwork unforgettably evokes the beauty and variety of nature in this part of the world. Any lover of wildlife, of art or of the Hebrides will find this book instantly absorbing.
'Jane's illustrations and prose transport you to a very special place and let you into the lives of some very special people . . . skilfully managing this nature reserve and meeting all the challenges thrown at them' - Stuart Housden, Director of RSPB Scotland.
