Masterpiece of knowledge." * Irish News * "A lively, entertaining and informative book, which will appeal to both experienced enthusiasts and armchair garden watchers." * Sherkin Comment * "This book is a Christmas feast for all ornithologists whether professional and 'established' or just awakening that passion as in my 7-year-old niece Charlie. Indeed a need is arising in me now to leave the laptop and engage with the wonders, even mini- miracles of the wild birds on my doorstep. A Delicious Read!" * Birding Frontiers * 'Lovely photographs and much to ponder on.' * The Irish Garden * "The book of the year." * Wings * "An encyclopaedia of bird lore." * Sunday Independent * "Appealing trademark style is relaxed and vernacular." * The Irish Times *

Author Biography

Anthony McGeehan, from Belfast, has been watching and photographing birds since childhood. Today, he leads birdwatching tours and assists BirdWatch Ireland. Widely published in magazines and newspapers, his book Birds Through Irish Eyes (2012) attracted much favourable comment. Julian Wyllie is one of the last birders who learned to read with The Observer's Book of Birds. Sharing his love for the natural world with a fascination for post-1965 underground music, he worked as a second-hand record dealer, as a dishwasher and for conservation bodies. He lives on Sherkin Island in West Cork, birding or listening to The Fall.
