Kingfishers and zebra finches, triggerplants and tiger snakes, sandcrabs and cabbage moths, wattle pods and waterlilies - all find a place in this collection of poems celebrating Australia's native and exotic flora and fauna.
Birds In Mind brings together over 200 poems by one of Australia's finest nature poets, poems as varied in style and tone as they are in subject and theme, poems that will turn you into nature and poetry lovers if you aren't already!
"Lansdown uses words with masterly precision to paint things as we have not previously seen them, but as we may be tempted to see them henceforth. His approach to his material is confident and systematic. And beguiling...
"Sometimes the images are so acutely accurate they have us asking, 'Why didn't we see that same similarity, that resonance?'"
Shane McCauley, Fremantle Arts Review
"Lansdown spices the world with pinches of finches."
Les Murray
