Flight - An Illustrated Notebook of Bird Life & Loss

Flight - An Illustrated Notebook of Bird Life & Loss.

Book by Jorji Gardener & Viv Szekeres.

"This book is the result of our close collaboration with the Ornithology Department of the South Australian Museum on the unique collection of birds and eggs of Captain SA White, ornithologist, and conservationist, and tells the story of the loss of bird species from a historic area here in South Australia. Sadly, a story being played out worldwide.

As well as looking at these topical issues, our book highlights the importance of museum collections today. It includes fascinating stories about the remarkable Ornithologist, Captain SA White, and the area of wetlands once known as the Reedbeds and includes a section about the Kaurna connection to the Adelaide Reedbeds."
