Countless writers have been inspired by the beauty of birds - their colours, their easy flight, their lightness and softness, and the grace and whimsicality of their ways. Our literature, especially our poetry, is full of them.
Spanning from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century, Poems About Birds captures the enticing lives of birds through the eyes of classic poets. From "Ode to a Nightingale" by John Keats and Sylvia Lynd's "The Return of the Goldfinches" to Alfred Lord Tennyson's "The Eagle" and "To The Skylark" by William Wordsworth, countless varieties of bird are celebrated here. This annotated edition selects the very best from H. J. Massingham's original collection which was first published in 1922.
