All the Birds of the World

I just ordered this “All the Birds of the World” book online, a perfect companion for a cold winter day with a glass of Bushmills whiskey.

I must admit that when the book arrived, I was surprised by the size and weight! It’s not a field or pocket guide. The quality of the illustrations is excellent. I recommend this book to all bird lovers!

It is the easiest and most enjoyable way to browse the world’s birds.
