Save the Birds
de A. W. Diamond, Roger Tory Peterson Institute(Ed. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt) Isbn : 0395511720
37.96 €
Save The Birds is about the endangered birds of the world, why they are threatened, and what actions are being taken and should be taken to ensure their survival.

Save The Birds describes the major natural environments of the earth from the tropics to the polar regions, the roles played in those ecosystems by birds, and the effects that humans are having on them.

Dodo: A Brief History
de Errol Fuller(Ed. Universe) Isbn : 0789308401
21.38 €
Sailors from a group of Dutch ships that reached the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius in 1598 found dodo birds in considerable numbers along the coast. Forty years later the species was all but gone there, and by 1690 it was extinct everywhere. Fuller, a British painter interested in curiosities of natural history, tells the dodo's story with grace and many intriguing illustrations. Hard facts about the dodo are minimal. The bird was "a gigantic, flightless pigeon" with a massive beak, a large head and a tuftlike tail. But its exact appearance is uncertain because drawings made while it still lived are contradictory.
