The Blackbird's Song and Other Wonders of Nature by Miles Richardson

'A wonderful "rough guide" to the planet we live on... Read it and pass it on as a gift of love from you to those around you so they can learn to feel comfortable in their own skins and ultimately, be happy.' Sir Tim Smit, The Eden Project

An almanac, focused on reconnecting with the great outdoors for the benefit of both us and nature.


Each month in The Blackbird's Song, Miles Richardson delves into the science and mythology behind our relationship with nature, exploring everything from our kinship with plants to the way in which nature influences our moods.

Along the way, he offers a range of activities to help us access the benefits of the natural world.

Whether it be 'joy-watching' birds, rediscovering wonder, foraging for Christmas crafts or going on an urban safari, this book contains all the tools and inspiration you need to unlock the transformative power of nature and find real meaning in your life.

Miles Richardson is a Professor of Human Factors and Nature Connectedness at the University of Derby. He has pioneered widely adopted and award-winning approaches to improving the human-nature relationship, and advises nationally and internationally on uniting human and nature's wellbeing. His first book, Reconnection: fixing our broken relationship with nature, was published by Pelagic Publishing in 2023.
