From Chronicle Books:

Exquisite images from award-winning National Geographic photographer Robert Clark offer a captivating perspective on the vast beauty and myriad functions of a seemingly simple thing: the bird feather. Each detailed close-up is paired with informative text about the utility and evolution of the feather it depicts, making this handsome marriage of art and science the ideal gift for bird lovers, natural history buffs, and photography enthusiasts.

 

Gorgeous photos of all kinds of bird feathers are the highlight of this book. There is some information on the feathers and the birds from which they are taken, but not as much as I’d like.
