<B>From bestselling author, Sally Coulthard, comes this charmingly illustrated guide to our favorite feathered friends and the myths and folklore that surround their lives.</B><BR/><BR/> Even today, birds are hugely symbolic.

Covering 50 well-loved avian species from across the world, she glides through their folklore, legends and symbolism. From common sayings to strange superstitions, ancient beliefs to modern celebrations, this gloriously illustrated and international guide reveals that<I> Bird Lore</I> is as alive and vibrant as it ever was.
