Now in Stock - Flight Lines: Tracking the Wonders of Bird Migration
The return of our summer migrants delivers a reassuring sense of a planet that, as the poet Ted Hughes once described, ‘is still working’. That birds should undertake such long and dangerous migratory journeys is something that has long fascinated us, prompting works of art and literature, not to mention many thousands of scientific studies.
The BTO’s Flight Lines project, a joint initiative with the Society of Wildlife Artists (SWLA), highlights through art and narrative the challenges that migrant birds face, and brings to light the conservation work that is being done to help them.
