The ancient heaths of Thomas Hardy's Wessex are a world of intrigue and living secrets. Look closely and you will see the basking adder, the secretive smooth snake, and rare sand lizards lapping the dew. You may also see and hear other rarities, the croaking natterjack toad, the churring master of camouflage, the nightjar. Created by man, our precious fragments of wild heath are now like islands in a sea of farmland and advancing asphalt. What hope is there for the gorse and heather landscapes that brooded over the fate of Tess of the D'Urbervilles and other Hardy characters?
