Written for both the curious amateur naturalist and the seasoned ornithologist, this compact yet richly illustrated volume chronicles the full spectrum of bird activity — how they feed, breed, migrate, and interact — bringing scientific rigour to bear on some of nature's most spectacular performances.\n\nSparks, a respected naturalist and broadcaster with a gift for making complex ethology accessible, presents his subject with clarity and enthusiasm, grounding observed behaviour in the evolutionary principles that drive it. The result is a work that illuminates not just what birds do, but why — revealing the astonishing logic underpinning their every movement, call, and display. For anyone who has ever paused to watch a mandarin duck glide across still water and wondered at the forces shaping its instincts, this book offers answers that are as compelling as the creatures themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203224379611,"sku":"2026200015589-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/4ca96bed-7a3d-4f46-a8fd-77ce65921242.png?v=1788146164","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200015589-secondhand-bird-behaviour","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
