The geese return . . . \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The arrival of huge flocks of geese in the UK is one of the most evocative and powerful harbingers of winter; a vast natural phenomenon to capture the imagination. So Stephen Rutt found when he moved to Dumfries one autumn, coinciding with the migration of thousands of pink-footed geese who spend their winter in the Firth. Thus began an extraordinary odyssey. From his new surroundings in the north to the wide-open spaces of his childhood home in the south, Stephen traces the lives and habits of the most common species of goose in the UK and explores the place they have in the culture, the history, and, occasionally, on the festive table. \u003ci\u003eWintering\u003c\/i\u003e takes you on a vivid tour of the in-between landscapes the geese inhabit, celebrating the short days, varied weathers, and long nights of the season during which British people share their home with these large, startling, garrulous, and cooperative birds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Rutt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1783965053\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781783965052\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Elliott \u0026amp; Thompson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.72h x 5.04w x 0.71d","brand":"Stephen Rutt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44042565910783,"sku":"9781783965052","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_824b0566-af11-47b2-9c18-8edad6f546b6.jpg?v=1684962274","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wintering-stephen-rutt-9781783965052","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
