Hannah Stitfall's takes us month-by-month through a Cornish wildlife year from her pursuit with a camera to picture short-eared owls in January to the friendly winter robin in December.
In what looks like an empty place in winter, networking groups pass messages on about what wildlife is around in the estuaries, fields, cliffs and beaches of the county.
She reports on BBC's The One show, BBC Earth and BBC Springwatch and has a degree in zoology and a masters in wildlife filmmaking.
Always enthusiastically, Stitfall seeks creatures night and day. Her photos are a highlight, of Cornish choughs, a polecat using a camera trap, a puffin, a dolphin, some sea bunnies and the beaver, which has transformed some areas of the British countryside and is at the forefront of debate about introductions for conservation.
With wildlife TV dominated by brilliant men such as David Attenborough (almost 98) and his heir apparent Chris Packham (amost 63), younger presenters such as Stitfall and Megan McCubbin (namechecked in the acknowledgements) could be the future.
Stitfall's inspiring book and positive view of her environment could motivate people to promote recovery of nature in a new way.
