Description
Soaring through the skies, light as the air itself, birds are the closest creatures we have to angels on the planet.
They bring song and beauty to our lives, and they play a significant role in sustaining Earth's ecosystems.
But birds are also facing the threat of extinction. In An Uncertain Future , Geoffrey Maslen takes us into the fascinating lives of Australian birds, showing us how intelligent they are, the significant threats they face due to disappearing habitats and how essential these angels of the air are to our own survival.Drawing on numerous interviews with researchers and biologists studying birdlife in Australia and dozens of scientific reports from around the world, Maslen reveals a dire picture of what plummeting bird populations mean for humanity.'Maslen's book is a clarion call for Australia's brilliant but disappearing birds.'
