<p>If the British conservation movement were a forest, Mark Avery would be one of the ancient oaks... His latest book, <em>Reflections</em>, now pours that experience into a mission statement for all those who claim to prize UK wildlife. From the daisies he mows around on his lawn to the spiders in his bath, Avery’s love of the creeping, crawling, soaring world is evident on every page.</p>
