Description
Have you seen a bird today? Probably, unless you’re reading this in bed. Did you notice what was really interesting about that bird? Investigating a bird is like solving a puzzle. To gather all the pieces, you look for clues: meet the omnibird.
An omnibird shares the basics of all birdlife: it was born from an egg, has feathers, two legs, a beak and gizzard, perhaps a premium feature like spurs or a curuncle. Knowing the omnibird gives you a case file of information to investigate any bird. You’ll be expert at finding extraordinary things around you, just by looking.
Omnibird investigates 18 common birds from habitats around the world—eagles, owls and seabirds, starlings, ducks and swans. Explore the incredible internal structure of bird bones, learn what a gizzard stone is for, find the fascinating in bird calls, bird poop, feathers, and flight patterns.
Now you’re an omnibird expert, you’ll look at every bird in new ways every day.
