Birds may be one color or many. Their feathers may be simple and solid, or speckled, striped, or spotted. They may "wear" a jacket, a scarf, an apron, a headdress. But just like people, each one contributes to our beautiful world, made more vibrant by their diversity. Amateur ornithologists young and old will marvel at the gorgeous birds in Susan Stockdale's colorful book, featuring stunning portraits and energetic, rhyming text that brings these creatures, both familiar and unusual, to remarkable life. An afterword provides more information about each species and offers an entertaining pattern matching game.
