On the farm and in the country garden, studies are made of forty species of bird widely found in New Zealand, beginning with one of the rarest and ending with tui in the nest. Written in a style engaging to the general reader, THE COUNTRY CAMERA focuses on definitive aspects of the birds' daily lives and expands on the subject photographically. The images, captured in a setting privileged by its remoteness, are intimate. A wealth of knowledge is casually gleaned by the reader. Companion volume to "The Country Diary of a New Zealand Lady"
