Around the World in 80 Birds, Hardcover

From the Sociable Weaver Bird in Namibia which constructs huge, multi-nest 'apartment blocks' in the desert, to the Bar-headed Goose of China, one of the highest-flying migrants which crosses the Himalayas twice a year.

 

Many birds come steeped in folklore and myth, some are national emblems and a few have inspired scientific revelation or daring conservation projects.

 

Each has a story to tell that sheds a light on our relationship with the natural world and reveals just how deeply birds matter to us!
