exploration.
Brian Parkinson, author and naturalist,
suggests travel routes and gives instructions and travel maps on how to
get to the special localities where some of our rarest birds and plant
species still survive.
Brian recommends best times to visit, how to get there, who will take
you to it and why many unique
species are now endangered or extinct. He describes the most
significant "Big Five" of
these unique species and tells you where to go - in the most caring and
compassionate way.
Brian may also be
described as a unique specie. Read more about this "one of a kind"
character here.
With its many kilometres
of coastline and numerous offshore islands, New Zealand offers probably
the world's best viewing of marine
mammals and pelagic sea-birds. Over 100
pages all in one convenient location.
Brian leads lead
ecotravellers on a fascinating journey from the kauri forests of Northland
in the North Island to
the kiwi of Stewart Island in the South. He pulls no punches
in condemning past decisions that shaped our natural heritage and he
encourages conservation initiatives. Brian is eminently qualified to
speak authoritatively with many natural history books to his credit and
several species of animals and plants named for him.
