Derek Ratcliffe was Britain's foremost mountain ecologist, ornithologist, and nature conservationist. He was a life-long friend of Hilary and John. Between 1990 and 2004, he made 14 trips to north Fennoscandia and published a wide-ranging book on Lapland's natural history.

To celebrate this book release, British ornithologists have declared April 21 to be Ratcliffe Peregrine Day in honour of Derek Ratcliffe's finding of his first Peregrine nest on 21 April 1945. (It is also Hilary Birks' birthday!)
