Egg & Nest by Rosamond Purcell, Linnea S. Hall and Rene’ Corado

EGG & NEST by Rosamond Purcell, Linnea S. Hall and Rene’ Corado

Alongside Purcell’s photographs, Linnea Hall and René Corado offer an engaging history of egg collecting, the provenance of the specimens in the photographs, and the biology, conservation, and ecology of the birds that produced them. They highlight the scientific value that eggs and nest hold for understanding and conserving birds in the wild, as well as the aesthetic charge they carry for us.

Egg & Nest is available from my store.
