Gronant Dunes, near Prestatyn, Denbighshire, Wales, is interesting not only for the Little Terns, which are rare in Britain, but also for the natterjack toads, sand lizards, and many butterflies and flowers found there. The book is an illustrated diary of the author's three summers there spent drawing and studying these beautiful, graceful, aggressive, and annoying birds. It includes over 20 watercolours as illustrations.
