Birds of the world are portrayed in all their colorful glory by Tim
Flach, the world's leading animal photographer
Radiating grace, intelligence, and humor, and always in motion, birds
tantalize the human imagination. Working for years in his studio and the
field, Tim Flach has portrayed nature's most exquisite creatures alertly
at rest or dramatically in flight, capturing intricate feather patterns
and subtle coloration invisible to the naked eye. From familiar friends
to marvelous rarities, Flach's birds convey the beauty and wonder of the
natural world. Here are all manner of songbirds, parrots, and birds of
paradise; birds of prey, water birds, and theatrical domestic breeds.
The brilliant ornithologist Richard O. Prum is our guide to this magical
kingdom.
