THE BUGS OF HONG KONG

A repeat promotion for my book, as it is even more relevant now that summer is in full swing, and with only about 100 copies left in print, make sure you grab yours before they are sold out....forever! https://www.wildcreatureshongkong.org/orderbooklet Also, I am pleased to say that the wonderful Benita and the NGO Encompass HK now take 50% of the book proceeds, as they provide fulfilment whilst I am out of Hong Kong; so another great reason to order your copy now. (ps Encompass also offer a range of great tours and activities, many of which are nature/wildlife related). Encompass HK offers training and consulting in Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and diversity and inclusion, to help alleviate some of these inequality problems in Hong Kong and Asia. Its summertime, and the living is.....full of bugs! We are surrounded in Hong Kong by a myriad of wonderful little critters and creatures, and if you want to know what these creepy crawlies are then I highly recommend my own book. Written by a layman, for the layman. With a LOT of help, from bug experts mind you! FYI, my print run is running out...so there are limited quantities available, so be sure to get your order in ASAP. Reserve yours today directly from: https://www.wildcreatureshongkong.org/orderbooklet Copies are available in a choice of black or white covers.

This book is for anyone who has ever said, or heard “Hey, what's this bug?” The ultimate guide for anyone who wants to know more about the many tiny creatures we discover on our walks in Hong Kong. What on earth is that? What does it eat? Is it poisonous? Can it sting? Does it lay eggs? Where can I find more? Is it a male or a female? Are they rare? This book attempts to answer all those questions… and more! Using amazing photographic images and explaining in terms we can all understand - combined with rigorous science and expert help - Ferguson plunges us into the tiny, wondrous and fascinating world of Hong Kong bugs; sharing their secrets with his characteristic insight and unique humour.
