"As the days grow shorter and colder in the Northern Hemisphere, billions of birds are migrating south. Their routes, habitats, food sources, and behavior are incredibly varied. From distinctive plumage to sleeping habits to intimate connections, the world of avians is as about as expansive and awe-inspiring as it gets. More than 11,000 species have been formally documented around the world, but there may be upwards of 20,000 depending on how they're recorded."
"Published by Thames & Hudson, Aviary features the work of more than 50 international photographers. Colossal readers may recognize images by Joseph McGlennon, Søren Solkær, Tim Flach, Leila Jeffreys, and many more, all of whom approach their subjects with an eye for atmosphere and individual personalities. Christine Ward's "Connection," for example, is an eminently relatable moment between two ravens. In Jeffreys' portrait of an owl, we can imagine being given the side-eye, as if it knows more than it's letting on,"
