Dryandra Woodland National Park: Unique Mammals and South-West Endemic Birds
by Paul H. Brown

Written by South-West ecologist Paul H. Brown, drawing on nearly 40 years working in Parks and Wildlife, this book is a deep dive into one of Western Australia's most important conservation landscapes.

Dryandra Woodland spans 30,000 hectares of remnant Wheatbelt bush, and Brown brings its wildlife to life in detail, profiling 27 mammals and 122 bush birds that call the park home. Alongside the species profiles, the book explores how Dryandra's diverse vegetation and predator control shape its landscapes, and looks at how its wildlife connects with, and contrasts against, that of Albany. 

From the endangered numbat, Western Australia's state mammal emblem, to the threatened woylies and bilbies protected within the park's breeding sanctuary, this is both a rigorous field reference and a personal account from a writer who has spent a career working to protect it.

An essential read for birdwatchers, naturalists, conservationists, and anyone planning a visit to one of the South-West's great biodiversity hotspots.
