Sobre IBD

In January 2020, fires ravaged eastern Australia, destroying homes, devastating native flora, and killing wildlife. Floods followed, causing more damage while also providing much needed water. This book captures the observations of the recovery on one property at Badja, New South Wales, from snuffling echidnas to mobs of kangaroos; from tiny ladybirds to colourful butterflies; from intricate orchids to towering eucalypts. In over 1,300 photographs, labelled with both the common and scientific name, the observations are interspersed with the author’s memories and what she learnt along the way.
