'An enchanting and thought-provoking mix of close observation of birds and cultural history, told with a new and refreshing perspective' Stephen Moss 'An original and delightful book - intelligent and tender. Stanislaw Lubienski is a warm-hearted guide, at once modest and passionate, funny and quizzical, and always brilliant on his birds.' Tim Dee 'A real balm to the soul' Jackie Morris, winner of Kate Greenaway Medal 2019 for The Lost Words
