"The Curious Book of Birds" by Abbie Farwell Brown. The birds that it deals with are described in a vein of fancy, like Kipling's Creatures of the Jungle Book. They are more like fairy birds than those of the familiar bird-book variety; in fact, such birds as children conjure up for themselves -- birds that think and talk like people. The basis of the book is to be found in old stories and legends, from ancient sources, mostly European, but some of Oriental and African origin, and others from the American Indian folk-lore.

As one can guess from the title, 'The Curious Book of Birds' is a book about birds—-however, it isn't a scientific treatise on the animal. Rather, it is a collection of short stories that feature birds as central characters. The stories are collected from folktales worldwide, and include the following titles: 'The Forgetful Kingfisher' from Germany, 'The Masquerading Crow' from Russia, 'Why the Nightingale Wakes' from France, 'The Phoenix' from Egypt, and 'The Owl and the Moon' from Malaysia.

LONG, long ago, at the beginning of things, they say that the Lord made the world smooth and round like an apple. There were no hills nor mountains: nor were there any hollows or valleys to hold the seas and rivers, fountains and pools, which the world of men would need. It must, indeed, have been a stupid and ugly earth in those days, with no chance for swimming or sailing, rowing or fishing. But as yet there was no one to think anything about it, no one who would long to swim, sail, row, and fish. For this was long before men were created.The Lord looked about Him at the flocks of newly made birds, who were preening their wings and wondering at their own bright feathers, and said to Himself, -"I will make these pretty creatures useful, from the very beginning, so that in after time men shall love them dearly. Come, my birds," He cried, "come hither to me, and with the beaks which I have given you hollow me out HERE, and HERE, and HERE, basins for the lakes and pools which I intend to fill with water for men and for you, their friends. Come, little brothers, busy yourselves as you would wish to be happy hereafter."Then there was a twittering and fluttering as the good birds set to work with a will, singing happily over the work which their dear Lord had given them to do. They pecked and they pecked with their sharp little bills; they scratched and they scratched with their sharp little claws, till in the proper places they had hollowed out great basins and valleys and long river beds, and little holes in the ground

'A revelation for anyone with the slightest interest in the feathered friends visiting their gardens' - Garden News You don't have to be a dedicated birdwatcher to be a bird lover. Millions of us love the sight and sound of them. And yet most of us know very little about their remarkable behaviour, incredible diversity and the story of their evolution. This handbook sets about answering every interesting question there is to ask about birds. How do migrating birds know where to go? Are birds really descended from dinosaurs? How do birds have sex? There are over 10,000 species in the world, including over 500 in Britain, some rare and endangered, some bizarre and beautiful, others common and familiar. As this captivating and often humorous handbook reveals, all of them are fascinating. Filled with beautiful illustrations, The Curious Bird Lover's Handbook is perfect for experienced twitchers and those who are simply captivated by the beauty of birds and would like to learn more about them. - The hardback edition titled "Bald Coot and Screaming Loon" was published in 2009.
