This is a must-read for bird lovers. Gardening for Birds, by Tracey Hawthorne, is aimed at the planning and planting of your garden to attract birds in all their wonderful variety.
It provides valuable hints and tips for catering for seed-and-meat-eating birds, and fruit-and nectar -feeders, as well as nesting birds and those seeking water and rest. For a true bird watcher this can become quite addictive and any “twitcher” can tell you that.
This book will provide you with all the do’s and don’ts of birdwatching, where all the bird habitats are situated, regional climates, all the things that can be a hazard in your garden and how to treat the pests.
Gardening for birds is a very practical guide and it is a companion to the very successful Cooking for Birds, also beautifully illustrated by Verné. The author caters for garden situations across the country.
This book is quirky and beautiflully presented, the perfect gift for a birder.
