my parents came over tonight for a few hours (more on that later!) and my dad brought me this book

Amazon.com: Bird: Books: David Burnie,Ben Hoare,Audobon

i was so happy because i had seen it in the bookstore several times but couldn't justify spending the $$ on it! it's a very nice hardcover, full color book with tons of information and photos about birds of the world. it's got a whole section on parrots too.

a must have for any bird lover, as far as i am concerned! check it out some time if you haven't already!

Oooh Thanks! We don't have that one. Santa are you listening???
What a great dad you have!

my dad is a saint! the more i page through this, the more i liek it. did you know that toucans and woodpeckers are in the same order?? i didn't!!!

Wow, no and I never would have guessed. I agree, awesome dad. I'll have to check out the book, I like pictures..
