Birds of Canberra: A Birdwatching Picture Book with Fun Facts and Photography
The gang-gangs, rosellas and cockatoos of the capital, in one picture book.
Canberra is quietly one of the best birdwatching cities in the country — the gang-gang cockatoo is literally its faunal emblem — and this picture book celebrates exactly that. Pairing clear photography with fun, digestible facts, it introduces the rosellas, cockatoos, kookaburras and honeyeaters that fill the capital's gardens, wetlands and nature reserves. It is pitched to be enjoyed across generations, from a curious child to a grandparent with binoculars by the back door, which makes it an easy, warm-hearted gift. For a family heading out to the Australian National Botanic Gardens or Jerrabomberra Wetlands, it turns a weekend walk into a scavenger hunt; for a homesick local, it is a flip-through reminder of the noisy, colourful birdlife that makes Canberra mornings sing.
