Eyewitness Bird gives a detailed overview for kids aged 9+ of a fascinating animal species and will encourage them to spot the incredible birds on the wing around you. Using full-color photographs of different species, feathers, beaks, bird anatomy and their nests, children can immerse themselves in the world of these feathered creatures. Witness the breathtaking moment when a chick hatches from its egg and watch as the young birds grow in their nest to take their first flight. Discover record-breaking flights and amazing camouflage.

Globally, the Eyewitness series has sold more than 50 million copies over 30 years. Travel through the solar system with Eyewitness Space, learn the incredible systems that keep your body functioning with Eyewitness Human Body, or take a trip aboard the most famous ship in history with Eyewitness Titanic.
