Part of the new ' Luxe Nature' gift-line series from Reed New Holland, this is a beautiful collection of artworks and inspirational quotes about birds from around the world, from hummingbirds and flamingos to albatrosses and owls. With a seemingly endless range of shapes, sizes and forms, birds have fascinated people for as long as anyone can remember. Their bright plumage, incredible antics and melodious songs bring joy and life to virtually every habitat on Earth. These remarkable creatures have inspired artists and writers alike for many centuries, even millennia, and this book is intended as a celebration of the relationship between birds and people. Stunning watercolour paintings and other artworks are coupled with quotes about birds - some very well known and others less famous. So prepare for a journey around the world - from the Americas to Australia, and from Asia to Antarctica - exploring many aspects that we love about our feathered friends.
