Musician and naturalist Bernie Krause is one of the world's leading experts in natural sound, and he's spent his life discovering and recording nature's rich chorus. Searching far beyond our modern world's honking horns and buzzing machinery, he has sought out the truly wild places that remain, where natural soundscapes exist virtually unchanged from when the earliest humans first inhabited the earth. Krause shares fascinating insight into how deeply animals rely on their aural habitat to survive and the damaging effects of extraneous noise on the delicate balance between predator and prey. But natural soundscapes aren't vital only to the animal kingdom; Krause explores how the myriad voices and rhythms of the natural world formed a basis from which our own musical expression emerged.

Overview How poignant it is to look at some of Gould's beautiful images of our animals and know that some are no longer with us, and some are fighting for their lives? In this book, author Fred Ford compares Gould’s world, and the world that the animals live in at that time, with the world today. John Gould’s Extinct and Endangered Mammals of Australia includes 46 Australian mammal species that, today, are threatened or extinct and that were portrayed in the lavish colour plates in John Gould’s 1863 publication, The Mammals of Australia. Each animal ‘opener spread’ begins with a Gould plate accompanied by ‘At a Glance’—a very short summary; the conservation status according to the EPBC (Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation) list, the species names, a map of its former and current distribution and sites of reintroduction; and a timeline of the species history since European colonisation.

Cloud Selector. Do you remember those ‘information wheels’ that used to be common in the 1950s? They were the apps of their day. Inspired by these, we have produced a cloud identification device fit for the 21st Century. Beautifully designed and printed onto durable and weather-proof plastic, the Cloud Appreciation Society ‘Cloud Selector’ is a handy carry-around aid to recognising 20 different types of cloud. You turn the dial on one or other side to find the photo that most resembles the cloud you are looking at. Words appear in the little windows to give you the formation’s name, distinguishing features, typical altitude, likelihood of precipitation, as well as its rarity.

All the photographs were kindly contributed by our members from around the world. One side of the Cloud Selector shows the ten main cloud types, while the other shows more specific and unusual formations. Steiff Classic Teddy Bear EAN 027321.
