Book excerpt: By finding an injured pigeon in The Strand, two amazing variety club artists, Louis and Yvonne Veness, first began to care for wild creatures. Upon their move to Berkshire, they started up their own Newbury wildlife hospital, knowing of no other in the country. Foxes, badgers, deer, squirrels, a polecat, bats and every variety of birds were brought to them, even an oiled heron from as far away as the Clyde. Their experiences were many - from rescuing fox-cubs born in a tombstone to separating two male swans involved in combat. Although Louis suffered a sex-change and became known as Louise, they pioneered against cruelty to wild creatures for over thirty years, appearing on television several times in programmes such as TV's "Country Ways" and "Magpie", and in numerous illustrated articles for the national press.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tony Johnston's THE BARN OWLS recalls in quiet tones the memory of a barn that has stood alone in a wheat field for one hundred years at least. The owls have nested there and have hunted in the fields and circled in the night skies as time slowly slipped by. Every night, as the moon rises, a barn owl awakens and flies out to hunt. Feathered against the endless starry night, he swoops and sails to the darkened wheat field below and catches a mouse in his nimble talons. With outstretched wings, this barn owl returns to his barn nest and his hungry family, repeating the ageless ritual his ancestors have practiced here, in this barn, for at least one hundred years. Following the life cycle of the barn owl, this gentle poem evokes a sense of warm sunshine and envelopes readers with the memory of the scent of a wheat field.
