On Rare Birds

“A twinkle of humor and a twist of wit illuminate the stories of these birds and the human figures that go with them. Life is really a series of stories, and Anita Albus is a superb storyteller.”  --ROBERT BATEMAN

“In Anita Albus’s pictures we see things in a way that we’ve either unlearned or forgotten.” --CLAUDE LÉVI-STRAUSS
 

“Anita Albus has created a thoroughly researched text using historical sources and glorious art to produce a fascinating book for bird lovers.”  --RICHARD CANNINGS, author of An Enchantment of Birds
