Jump to
Desmond Nethersole-Thompson (1908-1989) was a British teacher, ornithologist and writer. Of Irish stock, Nethersole-Thompson was brought up in the south of England, and educated at St Paul's School, London and the London School of Economics . From the 1930s he spent most of his life in Scotland and is notable for his contribution to ornithology through his monographs on various birds of the Scottish Highlands, as well as his other writings. He was one of a generation of country-lovers who transferred their field craft from stalking, hunting and collecting to observing the previously unstudied behaviours of wild animals.
