I read every book on wild swimming I could get my hands on, including Amy Liptrot’s #TheOutrun; & several other nature memoirs, such as @hjm.bsky.social's H Is for Hawk; & JA Baker's #ThePeregrine.
Part 3 J A Baker country at Goldhanger and Gore Saltings with sights and sounds featuring Cuckoo, Barn Owl, Lapwing, Reed Sedge and Cetti Warblers, Little Egret, Red Kite and Kestrel #ThePeregrine #Essex #Nature #Birds
Sounds for the day. Morcheeba and Lawrence English. #music #sounds #morcheeba #lawrenceenglish #electronica #whocanyoutrust #theperegrine
The Peregrine by J. A. Baker
Imagine Werner Herzog recommending this book with utmost earnestness and not that it should be read once but read again and again. Imagine David Attenborough reading it aloud with the same near awe. Imagine a hill with a silhouette of a rising submarine. #theperegrine #books #masterclass
If like me you've read and been mesmerised by The Peregrine by J A Baker, and enjoyed his second book, The Hill of Summer, you'll naturally be intrigued and keen to read Baker's biography, My House of Sky by Hetty Saunders next. My dog sure is 🪶🐾

It actually happened to me!
The sort of first line of a book that makes you sit up, already sensing that you’re in very capable hands indeed here... #ThePeregrine
