Birds

Wildlife artist Robert Bateman has sketched and painted bird life in every corner of the globe. In this volume illustrated with his paintings, Bateman celebrates the range of bird life on earth, from the spectacular plumage of the fiery rainforest quetzal to the haunting call of the northern hermit thrush. Through his notes, informative diary entries and detailed sketches, he shares with the reader his observations of bird behaviour and his keen appreciation of their beauty.
