The Secret Life of Birds {giveaway}

June 11, 2022 - By 

We love this time of year. The garden is full of birds and wildlife and the children love being outside. We love to share books about nature and were recently introduced to The Secret Life of Birds by Moira Butterfield, a gorgeous illustrated book for children.

The Secret Life of Birds by Moira Butterfield

Did you know that birds navigate by invisible pathways in the sky, that they can call to each other in thousands of different ways and they can be as tall as a fridge, such as the male ostrich, or as small as a little finger, such as the bee hummingbird? The Secret Life of Birds is a collection of delightful stories and engaging facts, which imparts a love of birds and of nature on the next generation, inspiring them to look after the world around them.

Learn about nest-building and bird babies, feathers and beaks, flying journeys, bird calls, really unusual-looking birds, and ways to spot birds and help them near where you live. Sumptuous and detailed illustrations have pride of place in this magical gift that mixes natural history with a splash of fantasy, creating a book to be poured over time and again.

  37. Bee Hummingbird, haven’t been lucky enough to see one but that’s probably because they are so small. 😂

  53. The bee hummingbird. I’ve seen hummingbirds when visiting Iowa and they are the sweetest little things.
