From songbirds to seagulls, nightingales to morning larks, birds have captured our imaginations, and our hearts, for thousands of years. In her new book, bestselling author Sally Coulthard takes a fascinating fight through the mythology and magic of the avian world. Covering 50 well-loved bird species from around the globe, she glides through the folklore, legends and symbolism that surround them.
From common sayings to strange superstitions, ancient beliefs to modern celebrations - this guide, beautifully illustrated by shop favourite Clover Robin, reveals that every bird, from robin to raven, has a story to tell.
