WHAT DO YOU SEE WHEN YOU WATCH A BIRD?
There is plumage to admire, identification marks to look out for, and song to lose oneself in. But beyond all this is their behaviour – the stealth of the hunter, the charisma of a male out to woo his mate and the sheer exuberance of flight. All of this explodes in brilliant colour and detail in the illustrations that light up this book. Rohan uniquely weaves together art and science with his trademark humour to give you a ringside seat to the daily dramas that make up the lives of birds. This is a book that goes beyond field guides and documentaries to help you see birds as never before.
India has a fantastic diversity of birds, all unique from one another in riveting ways. This book describes the antics of about a hundred.
Flip over, read, revel!
