Here is an account of a year's observations of the undisturbed home life of a Welsh seal colony. .

"Almost by chance Ronald Lockley acquired the neglected Orielton estate in Pembrokeshire. With the estate came a family: it included birds, badgers, rabbits, hares, stoats, bats, ants and other interesting wildlife inhabitants." This is Lockley's account of the natural history of the estate which includes "something of the history and adventures of the family that lived at Orielton for seven centuries. [And we] learn how the estate was preserved from threatened exploitation, to remain as Ronald Lockley had planned - a centre for the conservation and study of all that we value in nature and the countryside." .

(Hardcover, 1969). 1969 1st edition. 8vo (141 x 215mm). Pp192. B/w illustrations, end paper maps and dust-wrapper design by C.F. Tunnicliffe. Yellow-mottled brown cloth, spine titled in gilt. Very good in slightly used and price-clipped dust-wrapper. "The island of Skokholm, tiny and remote, off the wild coast of Pembrokeshire, where Ronald Lockley, as a young man, went to study the tens of thousands of wild creatures living there. Mr. Lockley tells of his struggle to wrest a living from this desolate place, at first alone, later with his wife and daughter. Of the rabbits and plagues of locusts: a fascinating study for the naturalist, a perpetual danger to the farmer. But it is the birds that are at the centre of this book - shearwaters, puffins, guillemots and petrels - 80,000 breeding birds on a mere 240 acres. With wit and delicacy, Mr. Lockley interprets the intricate family affairs of the shearwaters. We follow, astonished, the series of experiments that unravelled the mysterious instinct which sends these small birds annually half way round the world and back, and which can guide them home, 3,000 miles across an unknown ocean. In recent years, Skokholm has become a nature reserve and an observatory of international importance and repute. It is also a sanctuary for those visitors who come to share briefly the serenity and beauty which Ronald Lockley imparts so vividly." Chapters include: The discovery; Possession; Winter; Spring; Cocklollies; Mystery of migration; Puffins; Rabbits; Guillemots; Mother Carey's Chickens; L'Envoi. .
