This ode to nature is the perfect summer companion during a day spent basking in the sun and marvelling at the blue sky above. What starts out as a simple renovation of Nina Burton’s late mother’s cottage turns into a joyous reflection on the natural world that nestles around the house. Nina revels in summer’s bounty; the curious critters who live in the garden, the night-time foragers who visit in search of food, and the bright and colourful aviators who rest their wings on the branches of her trees, or bathe in nearby waters. Notes from a Summer Cottage celebrates the beauty of nature and dreams of a life where human- and animal kind can live in harmony on this planet we all call home.
