Birds 365 gives this perennially popular subject the 365 treatment: ornithologist and conservationist Philippe J. Dubois presents a "day in the life" of a different species of bird in each entry, describing the behaviors, habitats and migrations of each one. The stunning images of birds in action, taken by some of the best avian photographers in the world, illustrate the text beautifully. The birds represented here are a truly global group, ranging across Europe, Asia, Africa and North and South America. Included in the book are passerines, waterfowl, raptors and everything in between. In addition to scientific information about each species that helps the reader identify its distinctive characteristics, Dubois gives insight into the bird's relationship with its human neighbours.
An engineer, environmentalist, and ornithologist Philippe J. Dubois is responsible for the French League for the Protection of Birds (LPO). He also studies the consequences of climate changes on birds. He lives in France.
