The most common trees in England are oaks, elms and beeches while Scotland has a lot of pines, firs and birches.

2. The fauna, or animal life in the British Isles is like in the northwest of Europe. Many larger animals such as bears and wolves don't live on the British Isles any more 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, frogs, butterflies and dragonflies.

3. More than two hundred species of birds live in the British Isles and about two hundred kinds are visitors to the place. Many of them are songbirds, in spring the land rings with their singing.
