Kingfishers and Kookaburras! Vibrant in color, conspicuous in activity and often hilariously raucous, these are some of the most well-known and much loved birds in Australia! Each of the ten Australian species has its own remarkably different story, brought to life in this book in a way that highlights their unique traits and individual personalities. Kingfishers and kookaburras are a versatile group. Their colors range across the spectrum. They have adapted to rivers and deserts, to wet rainforests and dry woodlands, to mangrove swamps and islands. They catch lizards, snakes and spiders on the ground, dive underwater for fish, snatch frogs in the tree canopy, and take insects in full flight. This book consists of ten essays, one on each bird, accompanied by spectacular photographs, many capturing moments of flight frozen in mid-air. Complementing the charming stories is a practical field guide section for readers intent on pursuing their own adventures in the kingfishers' realm. Also includesfield notes on the birds, accompanied by distribution maps and photography tips. This book is both a study and a celebration of kingfishers, the jewels of the Australian bush. It will be treasured by photographers, naturalists, serious ornithologists or anyone thrilled at the sight of a kingfisher! Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
