A gorgeously illustrated book all about birds, for young animal and conservation enthusiastsEnter the world of birds for an incredible journey through the skies, into trees, and even underground. Parrots, hummingbirds, eagles, and more swoop across the pages of this colourful bird book, which combines gorgeous illustrations and photos to help young nature enthusiasts learn all about the wonderful world of birds. From frozen ice-scapes to sweltering deserts, from prehistoric ancestors to amazing adaptations, they' ll discover the surprising homes, relationships, and habits of our feathered friends. The Extraordinary World of Birds, written by the Urban Birder David Lindo and illustrated by Claire McElfatrick, shows children just how amazing birds are, what they do for our planet, and how we can help to protect birds and their natural habitats. It includes bird families such as gamebirds, flightless birds, and perching birds, plus amazing facts on how birds talk to each other, what they eat, and how they are able to fly.
Also known as the Urban Birder, author David Lindo is a writer, broadcaster, photographer, and educator. Through his broad array of work, his goals are to inspire people to engage with birds in urban environments, and show how birding can be accessible to all. He was awarded the prestigious H H Bloomer Award 2021 from The Linnean Society of London for his work communicating the biological sciences to the masses. He is a proud Ambassador for Leica Birding, London Wildlife Trust, Birding For All, and is involved in many other nature conservation and wildlife organisations. Claire McElfatrick' s gorgeous illustrations can be seen in the previous DK title, The Magic and Mystery of Trees, The Book of Brilliant Bugs, and Earth' s Incredible Oceans. Her enchanting, detailed artwork is woven in with photographs to create an effective, accurate image for children.
