This coloring and drawing book aims to highlight the diverse bird life found in gardens, parks, and fields. Most people are enthusiastic bird lovers because birds can do something that humans cannot: flying is an ancient dream of humanity. Time and again, humans have tried to fly with homemade wings and flying devices. Additionally, people enjoy the colorful plumage of many bird species. The remarkable journeys of migratory birds during their autumn migration to winter quarters and back to their breeding grounds in spring are particularly admired.

Anyone wanting to get to know the world of birds should first try to familiarize themselves with a clear selection of species. In this coloring book, the well-known animal painter Bernd Pöppelmann has compiled a small selection that can be easily encountered in various regions of Germany or whose names are familiar. He has created the corresponding illustrations and sketches and provides many helpful instructions for drawing and painting. Brief descriptions offer additional information about each bird species. This coloring book can help spark young people's interest in nature. Moreover, through coloring, the distinctive features of the birds are better memorized.
