The joys of a garden for your birds

Anyone who has ever dreamed of owning a trout lake or pond should enjoy reading this comprehensive and practical guide based on the author's own experience of creating a trout lake more than two acres in size. Although the main purpose is to give guidance on how to make and manage a lake as a trout fishery for pleasure or profit, the author recognizes that there are many reasons for making a lake. He therefore includes useful notes on such aspects as coarse fishing, shooting, conservation and environmental improvement. As a keen naturalist and artist, Dr Barrington looks at all the flora and fauna in the lake's environment and thus presents a book with wide appeal to anglers and nature lovers as well as land owners and those concerned with the management of fresh waters.
