{"product_id":"100-australian-birds-by-georgia-angus","title":"100 Australian Birds by Georgia Angus","description":"\u003cp\u003eBirdwatching has a reputation problem. Mention it and most people picture expensive camera lenses, oversized field guides and Latin names that take a decade to memorise. 100 Australian Birds was written for everyone else: people who notice a bird in the garden or on a bush walk and want to know a bit more, without wading through jargon to get there.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeorgia Angus profiles 100 native species found across Australia, each with her own hand-drawn illustrations alongside distribution maps, identification pointers and notes on behaviour. Where relevant, she includes the names given to particular birds in \u003cem\u003eTaungurung\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eGumbaynggirr\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eWiradjuri\u003c\/em\u003e languages, adding a layer of cultural context that most field guides leave out entirely. The result reads more like a well-illustrated companion than a reference manual, with a foreword from scientist Tim Flannery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt suits a wide range of readers: someone picking up birdwatching for the first time, a regular bush-walker who wants to put names to what they're seeing, or anyone who simply likes well-made nature books. It also makes a considered gift for the person in your life who already stops mid-conversation to point out a bird.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's included \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eProfiles of 100 native Australian bird species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal illustrations by the author\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistribution maps and identification guidance for each entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBehavioural notes alongside First Nations names for select birds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForeword by scientist Tim Flannery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaperback, 240 pages\u2028\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 210 x 170mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hardie Grant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45873671372935,"sku":"9781741177220","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0345\/4160\/0903\/files\/100_Australian_Birds_by_Georgia_Angus_page1.png?v=1789609268","url":"https:\/\/thestraywhisker.com.au\/products\/100-australian-birds-by-georgia-angus","provider":"The Stray Whisker","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
