Quarto,304 pp.,photographs, dustwrapper. WAS $80. Bowerbirds are fascinating because of their unusual behaviour involving building complex structures, called bowers. Some bowers are like miniature buildings and are artistically decorated with flowers, fruits, bones, shells, feathers and much more, including numerous human artefacts. Birds even paint their bowers, some applying pigment to bower walls by the use of a tool.

The book includes detailed information on bower construction and other aspects of bowerbird behaviour as well as historical information on bowerbird discovery. …
