The objective of this book is to encourage the reader to get to
know what we call "common" birds which, surprisingly, are not
always that well known. Although aimed at children of between six
and twelve years of age, this book has been written in an
informative, yet easy-flowing manner that appeals to children and
adults alike. It endeavours to educate without adopting the
approach of an encyclopedia. Ten individual birds of various
species are considered, providing detail about appearance, habitat,
song, feeding, mating, nesting and offspring. Beautiful
watercolours illustrate each text. These paintings have been
created following careful examination of numerous photographs. The
paintings accurately reflect the appearance of each bird in their
natural habitat and on occasion, with their mate, specifically when
the colouring and plumage differs significantly. The detail in each
painting provides the opportunity for learning consolidation and
further discussion, potentially enabling their use in a classroom
environment.
