Birds of Africa

Embark on a breathtaking visual journey across the wilds of East Africa with African Birds, a stunning photographic collection by Jane Moorman. Captured during an 18-day adventure through Kenya and Tanzania's majestic wildlife reserves, this book showcases over 40 species of East African birds in their natural splendor. Photographing birds in their natural habitat is no small feat-requiring both patience and precision. Moorman shares, "The biggest thrill is catching a bird in flight with its wings extended, capturing every feather in crisp detail-a true accomplishment." None of these captivating images were taken from a blind; each was seized in a moment's notice, thanks to the keen eyes of her safari guide.

East Africa is home to approximately 1,400 bird species, representing 15 percent of the world's total-an astounding variety few can resist. From the commanding presence of African Fish Eagles to the vibrant displays of Lilac-breasted Rollers, every image in this collection tells a story of life, color, and movement in the untamed wilderness. Moorman's lens brings you closer to the vivid details and raw moments of birdlife, making it an unforgettable visual feast and tribute to the region's remarkable biodiversity.
