Hummingbirds

Very good used hardcover with slightly bumped corners. Dust jacket is slightly shelf-worn.

Hummingbirds are the most dazzlingly colored animals on earth, and have aptly been described as 'jewels if the air'. This book is a tribute to their beauty and is one of the best collections of color photographs of hummingbirds ever compiled. Seventy stunning photographs, often filling a whole page, show the full range of hummingbirds in all their splendour, from the diminutive Ruby-throated hummingbirds, familiar to many in North America, to the Giant hummingbird, which is the size of a Starling. An informative and beautiful book.
