Rural Britain Desk Calendar

Rural Britain Desk Calendar Overview

The Rural Britain desk calendar brings alive the beauty and amazing diversity of the British landscape and the wildlife which shares it and which is rarely seen. Each month features two complementary images of scenic locations across the British Isles and the creatures which inhabit each environment.

The dazzling white chalk cliffs and foreshore at Swyre Head, Dorset are seen in one image. The steep sea cliff with a small beach below, rises to meet a huge dry valley along the top. The South West Coast Path runs through undulating green downland on the clifftop. The cliffs on the Jurassic Coast have been sculpted by the sea into unusual landforms such as chalk stacks and rock arches. The matching photo is of Bottlenosed dolphins which can be spotted offshore near here. These sleek mammals swim swiftly, surfacing often to breathe, travelling in small social groups and communicating by squeaks and whistles.
