'An offbeat book featuring 52 charming characterful illustrations of our best-loved British birds' -- BBC Wildlife

'A treasure to behold' -- ***** Reader review
'Quirky, creative but very well-observed' -- ***** Reader review
'This book should be owned by all garden bird lovers!' -- ***** Reader review
'Absolutely love this book!' -- ***** Reader review
'Utterly charming!' -- ***** Reader review

*************************************************************************************
Since its first appearance in July 2009, Matt's 'Bird of the Week' feature for the Caught by the River website has quickly become a cult hit.

His pop-art watercolours are distinctive and enchanting, as are his innovative descriptions, which see great tits 'bossing the other birds around', the 'playful yet shy buoyancy' of bullfinches and the 'improbable' nature of the waxwing ('like a computer-generated samurai finch').

This witty, delightful and distinctive gift book will appeal to bird watching enthusiasts, children and adults, and art and illustration fans alike.
