Description

Family of Hummingbirds by John GouldThe sublime collection of 418 superbly detailed paintings of hummingbirds by the great artist John Gould, the 19th century naturalist painter often referred to as the "British Audubon", represents all the known species on the planet at the time and is the most complete ever produced. Like Audubon, Gould depicted the birds as they are in life, in their native habitats, which was still a revolutionary approach at the time. Yet Unlike Audubon, Gould

 The sublime collection of 418 superbly detailed paintings of hummingbirds by the great artist John Gould, the 19th-century naturalist painter often referred to as the "British Audubon", represents all the known species on the planet at the time and is the most complete ever produced. Like Audubon, Gould depicted the birds as they are in life, in their native habitats, which was still a revolutionary approach at the time. Yet Unlike Audubon, Gould traveled widely across the globe and the exquisite hummingbirds he painted so beautifully represent all the known species at the time and haled from the most remote and exotic ecosystems on the planet.

fun, diversity filled, read
Format: Kindle
I think this was a great fantasy book with lots of magic about friendship, courage, and finding your identity, whatever that may be. I liked how even if demons seemed bad at first, they are just different. Everyone is.
