Lofty Premium Book on Bird Mythology,Feathered Tales and Avis Fables.

This excellent bird-book is a 'rara avis',among others of the topic.Every major bird myth and amazing bird tale is covered here.Recorded through the centuries,by the tribal elders and through surviving inscribed artifacts.I only wished the author had elaborated more on some of the classical avifaunal histories.Yet,the hefty book would expand to twice the current size,to cover that supply of information.If you're interested in the mythical fables and unique stories surrounding birds,then this is a must read for fledgling aviculturists.This is the perfect book to fledge your aviary-library upon.(petit a' petit l'oiseau fait son nid.)
