Written and painted by Chloe Talbot Kelly
HarperCollins, 2009, softcover, 127pp
All the commoner and more interesting New Zealand bird species are described and illustrated in this beautiful book, including parrots, kiwis and penguins.
To aid species identification, information on bird behaviour, song, nesting, food, habitat and prevalent features is included.
230 species and subspecies are illustrated in the habitat where they may be seen, showing seasonal, sexual and juvenile plumage variations.
A gorgeous and informative book for the bird watcher and as a reference guide for children and adults alike. I didn't realise we had so many species of birds living in New Zealand!
