About Specialist Nature
The wonderful world of nature is best explored through pictures, so these quizzes include around 600 colourful identification images. Every question shows a clear photo you can enlarge with a click, making it easy to compare features and learn as you go. Topics span mammals, birds, plants, insects, spiders, rivers and seas, geology and more.
We’re especially proud of the British Birds series – there are 30 quizzes, each focusing on a group of species from the most common garden visitors to rarer birds seen across the UK. If you enjoy targeted practice, try favourites such as British Birds – Birds of Prey or explore other areas like Plants – Wildflowers, Reptiles & Amphibians – Reptiles of the World and Rivers – Fish.
Nature links closely with school Science, so these picture quizzes are great for revision and enrichment. Prefer a curriculum-focused challenge? You can also test yourself with our KS3 Science section for a broader knowledge check.
