Reviews
Birds of Fairchild is a celebration of the Garden and its birds, a demonstration of how birds and plants interact and an exposition of plant-bird relationships applicable to the home garden…a book that all visitors and members should take home with them so as to prolong and deepen their Garden experience, and to prepare for the next visit.
-Bruce Greer, President, Fairchild Tropical Botanic GardenReviews
This book is a visual triumph, and an intelligent tribute to the free-flying components of a world class tropical paradise far better known for its superb plant collections and landscapes…For any visitor to Fairchild Gardens, from first-timers to the longtime members, this book will deepen the appreciation of the liveliness of this special place.
