A fleeting Rufous Hummingbird sips nectar from summer flowers, a Red-breasted Nuthatch settles in a snowy landscape among winterberries, and a ghostly Barn Owl perches on an ancient garden gate.

Accompanying the full-colour photographs are quotes and detailed information about the featured species, plus tips for cultivating native plants and attracting pollinators to create a bird-friendly space
