## Description

In this beautiful gift edition, pop-art street artist Matt Sewell offers his own unique take on 52 of our favourite British garden birds. '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.
