Birds
LIMITED AVAILABILITY, AUTOGRAPHED BY AUTHOR! Taking us to the corners of the earth to give examples, Rosemary Low explains why birds are at risk. From the flightless, nocturnal Kakapo (a giant parrot) of New Zealand, to the amazing Californian Condor, saved from extinction by captive breeding to the believed extinct or newly-discovered brush-finches of the Andes, she recounts their fascinating and often inspiring stories. Birds inspire devotion in millions of people worldwide. Through the ages they have played an important role in the life of man but now they need our help. Escalating human populations threaten more than 12% of birds with extinction this century. In this book Rosemary Low explains why, giving examples from all corners of the earth and recounts remarkable stories of bird life. Fascinating reading for anyone interested in birds and birding.
