Book Description
Straight from the internationally renowned bird-watching team of Kit and George Harrison comes the shocking, eye-opening truth: raw facts of love and sex among the feathered species. The Harrisons introduce the reader to multiple variations of love among birds, ranging from the friendly wren in your backyard to the over-endowed alpine accentor, from the cuckolded chickadee to the lesbian gulls of Santa Barbara Island. The details are fascinating, amusing and frank. With a light, wry touch, the Harrisons chronicle scientifically accurate tidbits, as illustrator Michael James Riddet wields a delicate pencil capturing each moments in striking black-and-white detail.
