Flora and Fauna of the British Isles.
The warm and wet climate of Great Britain is very good for plants. That is why the country
looks like a beautiful garden. Centuries ago there were a lot of forests on the British Isles but
now you can find big forests only in a few parts of the country- the North of Scotland and the
South-west of England. The most common trees in England are oaks, elms, and beeches
while Scotland has a lot of pines, firs, and birches.
The fauna or animal life on the British Isles is like in the north-west of Europe. Many larger
animals such as bears and wolves don`t live on the British Isles anymore but there are a lot of
smaller animals: foxes, rabbits, hares and hedgehogs.

Deer live in the forests of Scotland and England too. There are also different kinds of fish, snakes,
lizards, frogs, butterflies and dragonflies.
More than two hundred species of birds live on the British Isles and about two hundred kinds
are visitors of the place. Many of them are song birds in spring the land rings with their singing.
There are also plant symbols of the country: the red rose is the natinal emblem of England, the
thistle is the national emblem of Scotland, the yellow daffodil and the leek are emblems of Wales
and shamrock is the emblem of Ireland.
