Creating Birdhouses: 30 Delightful Projects to Turn Your Garden into a Home for Birds
de Mary Maguire (Ed. Lorenz Books) Isbn : 075480450X
16.87 €
The introduction in this book provides helpful information on bird habits, behavior and needs and also shows that it can be wonderfully easy to invite birds into the garden, such as with a simple bird table with tasty nibbles and fresh water on it. Part of the pleasure, however, of having a bird-friendly garden is to be found in the planning and creation of it. Creating Birdhouses contains 30 projects showing how to make everything from individually painted and decorated bird houses to tables, baths, roosting posts and bird feeders. The projects in this book encompass a wide range of designs, materials and decorations, so you can choose from simple, traditional hand-painted bird boxes, to a recycled wellington boot bird house or a hollowed out log nesting box. There are projects ranging fr...

Moa

Moa
de Richard Wolfe (Ed. Penguin Books (NZ)) Isbn : 0143018736
19.55 €
The intriguing story of the controversy and personality clashes behind the discovery of the moa in the nineteenth century. In 1839, on the basis of a single fragment of bone from the other side of the world, the great English anatomist Richard Owen reached the conclusion that it came from an unknown gigantic flightless bird. Many initially thought Owen's claim preposterous. Owen's piece of bone is the starting point for Richard Wolfe's fascinating story behind one of the nineteenth century's great natural history discoveries.

Parrots, macaws, and cockatoos: The art of Elizabeth Butterworth

Parrots, macaws, and cockatoos: The art of Elizabeth Butterworth
de Elizabeth Butterworth (Ed. Harry N. Abrams, Inc.) Isbn : 0810925850
15.73 €
The hyacinthine macaw and the umbrella cockatoo are among the more flamboyant subjects of this poster-size collection, which comprises 26 meticulous renderings of tropical birds executed in oils, watercolors, pen and ink, and gouache. A keen eye, sure hand, facility with color and evident fascination with exotic aviary make British artist Butterworth highly proficient in her craft. Disappointingly, the extremely accurate, photorealistic studies lack the originality or expressiveness that might elevate them to a more enduring art form. While readers with a specific interest in birds should welcome this slim volume as a fine visual catalogue of the subtle variations in feather formation and coloring that distinguish over two-dozen parrot-related species, few plates stand on compositional int...
