PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Norbert Lefranc is a French ornithologist specialising in the ecology of shrikes. He has travelled all over the world in search of shrikes and other birds, publishing many papers and four books, including Les Pies-grièches d’Europe, d’Afrique du Nord et du Moyen-Orient (1993) and the first edition of the present book (1997). He worked as a biodiversity officer for the Ministry of Ecology in the ‘Grand Est’. Now retired, he spends his time contributing to research and conservation actions led by NGOs, particularly by the Société d’Etudes Ornithologiques de France (SEOF) and the Ligue pour la Protection des Oiseaux (LPO/Birdlife France). Tim Worfolk has been a full-time bird illustrator since 1994 (the original Shrikes was his first commission). His work has appeared in dozens of field guides, handbooks and scientific papers. He has visited many countries in Europe, Asia, Africa and North America in search of shrikes and other birds but, for environmental reasons, has now given up air travel. Since 1999 he has lived by the Exe Estuary in Devon, England where he mostly gets around by bicycle.
'No doubt that this magnificent book will contribute to a better understanding of these wonderful birds and become an inspiration for the next generation of birders and professional ornithologists alike.' -- Dries Van Nieuwenhuyse
