Australian Backyard Naturalist by Peter Macinnis turns any patch of outdoor space into a living laboratory. Written for curious young adults and adults, this 2012 illustrated paperback from the National Library of Australia invites readers to meet the tiny wildlife hiding in plain sight.

Macinnis blends ecology, Australian history and practical advice, showing how to observe, photograph and even rear local insects, spiders, frogs and small animals without disturbing their habitats. The 222-page volume doubles as a hobby guide and a reference book, packed with crisp drawings that aid quick identification of backyard guests.

Whether your interest lies in animal welfare, nature study or simply unwinding outdoors, this concise handbook delivers professional-level insight in friendly, jargon-free prose. Clean, tidy pages from a smoke-free home mean the book is ready to slip straight onto your shelf or into a field bag for weekend expeditions.
