Following on from Birds of Australia, this new book from Don Hadden showcases more than 85 birds that live in some of Australia's direct and hottest regions.
The beauty of these birds, such as the tiny delicate Emuwren that lives exclusively among Spinifex clumps, the unmistakable majestic Wedge-tailed Eagle and the elusive Chestnut-breasted Whiteface of the gibber plains of South Australia, are all captured in their natural environments by peripatetic nature photographer Don Hadden. This book is filled with beautiful photographs in a hardback landscape format.
