      Im klirrenden Januar beginnt die Geschichte der Heckenbraunelle. Es gibt nichts mehr zu essen, alles ist im Schneesturm erfroren. Der kleine Vogel verlässt sein Revier, macht sich auf die Suche und findet schließlich Unterschlupf in einer Scheune. Ein Jahr begleiten wir die Heckenbraunelle, von dem erfolgreichen Überstehen des eiskalten Winters über die Suche nach einem treuen Gefährten bis zum mühsamen Nestbau in einer Hecke. Leben und Tod liegen dicht beieinander. Das alles passiert in einem kleinen englischen Tal. Es erzählt von den Menschen, die dort wohnen, von den Tieren, die alle auf ihre eigene Art und Weise um die Erhaltung ihrer Art kämpfen. Eine bewegendes Jahr, das wir als Leser begleiten dürfen, obwohl die Hauptperson so klein ist.
