A beautifully presented book of 30 large pull-out posters featuring delightful paintings of native birds by artist Eileen Mayo, first reproduced in the late 1970s as series of picture cards in packets of Gregg's Jelly Crystals.

From the curious matuhituhi bush wren, to the elegant kotuku white heron, or the owl-like kakapo, it's not hard to see why these exquisite paintings captured the hearts of young New Zealanders.

This beautifully designed book includes:
- 30 large pull-out colour posters of exquisite paintings of rare and endangered New Zealand birds.
- Short texts on each bird by renowned conservationist and science educator John Darby (ONZM).
- An engaging introduction to the art of Eileen Mayo, one of the country's most remarkable artists.
- A special binding method that allows each poster to be lifted from the book.
- Shrink-wrapping.
