Reader's note

This is a stunning geometric King Penguin edition of Mountain Birds is written by R.A.H. Coombes. It includes sixteen beautiful full colour plates by G.E.Lodge. “The abundant Kestrel and the less abundant Buzzard can fund a living in almost any type of country, and both nest in trees in the woods as well as no crags on the fellside. Both these hawks spend a great deal of time in the air and look their best when seen among the hills, but that is really true of any species. A Buzzard for example, circling high above the wood in the lowlands seems a very tame affair compared with the Buzzard circling high among the mountain peaks. It is the mountains that lend enchantment to the birds.”
