A Garden Managed for Wildlife - Author John Miller takes us behind the scenes of his garden where his focus is on habitat for songbirds! John is a wildlife expert and his passion for songbirds led him to make small changes to his garden that he hopes will inspire you to bring songbirds into your own garden and enjoy their song. You can follow John on social media, Substack and Conservation Communications.
His new book, One Day a Thousand Songs is out now. A celebration of British birdsong and the English garden.
'This book is a delight. I shall return to it time and time again' - Review by Charles Moseley for One day a Thousand Songs by John Miller

A review from author and Cambridge Professor of English, Dr. Charles Moseley
One Day a Thousand Songs by John Miller
'This book is a delight. I shall return to it time and time again, for it is one of those books that grows new subtleties the more you yourself learn to pay attention to that to which your author - your mentor - is pointing. Anyone who loves observing, sympathising (however anthropomorphically!) with the daily drama - sometimes tragedy, sometimes comedy, and both are set to the wild music of birdsong - of the garden, the countryside, and its birds will be grateful for so meticulous and sensitive a chronicler and narrator.
John Miller's writing more than once made me think of Gilbert White in its observation of the minute, easily missed, detail. His natural, easy style engages you from the first page, and there is much wisdom as well as love in these pages. I wished it longer. I would be proud to have written such a book, and it will have an honoured place on my shelves.'
