Illustrated and indexed. Birds for all Seasons is a superbly illustrated celebration of the beauty and diversity and wonder of birds.
Jeffery Boswall takes a fresh look at the bird life of the planet, emphasising the response of birds to the changing seasons; the annual cycles of darkness and light in the frozen polar wastes of the Arctic and Antarctic, of rain and heat in the steaming tropics, and of warmth and cold in the temperate regions sandwiched between the tropical and polar regions.
Courtship, mating, nesting, fledging, feeding and flight all unfold in fascinating detail, and of the 10,000 kinds of birds, over 100 species are chosen to highlight the great variety of feathered life-styles throughout the world.
Informative and colourful, Birds for all Seasons, is an excellent introduction to the world of birds - arguably the most attractive, musical and familiar wild creatures on our earth. The book is a companion volume to the major BBC television series with the same title.
