Hinewai: The Journal Of A New Zealand Naturalist

Hugh D. Wilson

4.9/5 (23859 ratings)

Description:New bird sightings, new tracks, new waterfalls, new plants. It may seem surprising that fresh discoveries at Hinewai Reserve continue unabated. It shouldn't. One thousand hectares of regenerating forest on intricate terrain, in a landscape like south-east Banks Peninsula, contain inexhaustible capacity for surprise. You could live a whole lifetime here and never run out of new and wonderful discoveries every day.Many years ago Hugh Wilson had a dream. A renowned South Island botanist and conservationist, he dreamt of restoring a patch of Banks Peninsula to it's original, pristine condition.Twenty-five years later his vision has almost come to fruition. From a gorse-covered block, with a small remnant of ancient bush, he and a group of enthusiastic helpers have created the Hinewai Nature Reserve, a wonderful wilderness which has become one of the treasures of Banks Peninsula, reknowned not only in the South Island but throughout the whole of New Zealand.Written originally in his clear long-hand script, this book is comprised of extracts from Hugh Wilson's regular newsletters to the many supporters of the reserve. It vividly describes Hinewai's always slow, sometimes frustrating, but ultimately triumphant metamophosis from scrubby, gorse-covered pasture into pristine New Zealand bush, containing nearly all the plant species and many of the birds that once inhabited the steep hills of Banks Peninsula.A robust conservationist, Wilson's enthusiasm for his Garden of Eden is conveyed to the reader through quirky humour and skilful line drawings of the natural world around him.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
