Insights into the daily lives of birds. Illustrated by Dianne Breeze. Indexed.
Birdlife opens the doors onto many aspects of the daily lives of birds, gathering together the various vital threads of feeding, breeding and adaptation for survival to provide a composite and easily understood picture of why they are such successful animals.
Birdlife offers a privileged insight into many aspects of birds' private lives; gives details of the phenomenal physiques that allow them to live their lives at such a hectic pace, or to withstand migrations in the thin air at heights greater than that of Mount Everest, or to plunge in pursuit of fish to depths in the sea that would crush an ordinary skeleton like matchwood.
Birdlife attempts to answer in everyday terms many of the questions that flood to the mind whenever we watch birds.
