Field craft expert and ace naturalist cameraman Simon King reveals his tricks of the trade in a practical guide on how to get up close and personal with some of UK's best loved wild animals, from otters and kingfishers to robins to red deer.
Simon shares some of his favourite - and most remarkable - close encounters with wild creatures from a lifelong passion for UK wildlife. By revealing some of his often surprising techniques, Simon encourages people to have a go themselves, giving a new and intimate perspective on native wild animals.
Simon shows how to get really close to wild otters and how to train a robin to feed from the hand. He demonstrates how to have a conversation with a grasshopper and how to sneak up on rabbits and fallow deer, as well as how to go fishing for lizards and get a fantastic pedicure from a prawn.
