Description
The year is 2060, springtime is missing and Britain hasn't seen snow for over twenty years...
Unbeknown to the creatures of the wild, Human 'Beings' have been destroying their homes for centuries.
But will they discover the truth in time?
This adventure story of friendship and bravery is set against the backdrop of the degrading landscapes of Britain, ravished by the effects of climate change. A wild community of birds battle the last of the winter's weather and urgently seek any sign of the spring that nourishes them. The year ahead promises to be the most demanding yet.
To their horror, they discover a devastating oil spillage in the North Sea. This endangered community start to realise that there might be a link between the evil of the black sea, the lack of food and continual storms which feature in their everyday lives. Slowly they start to believe the unthinkable suggestion that the Human 'Beings' maybe to blame. Surely, they wouldn't destroy their own planet? Would they?
The adventure to survive and discover the truth begins...
