A fully updated new edition of David Attenborough’s bestselling
classic. BIRDS. Over 9,000 species, the most widespread of all
animals: on icebergs, in the Sahara or under the sea, at home in
our gardens or flying for over a year at a time. Earthbound, we can
only look and listen, enjoying their lightness, freedom and
richness of plumage and song. David Attenborough has been watching
and learning all his life. His classic book, now fully updated with
the latest discoveries in ornithology, is a brilliant introduction
to bird behaviours around the world: what they do and why they do
it. He looks at each step in birds' lives and the problems they
have to solve: learning to fly; finding food; communicating; mating
and caring for nests, eggs and young; migrating; facing dangers and
surviving harsh conditions. Sir David has no equal in helping
others to learn and making it exciting. His curiosity and enjoyment
are infectious. He shows the lifelong pleasure that birds around us
offer, and how much we miss if unaware of them.
