Two new bird bargain books NOW AVAILABLE
The new atlas of Australian birds NOW AU$30.00 - Was AU$90.00
The flight of the Emu NOW AU$25.00 - Was AU$70.00
I think it fair to say that these are two of the best bargain bird books we have had in a long time. Both books are important contributions to the science and history of Australian ornithology and anyone with a passing interest in the subject should have a copy of each on their shelves.
