I should have mentioned Rosalind Walcott’s review of this book in the last issue of Canberra Bird Notes [Vol. 36 (3)] p. 177. She also highly recommends the book while noting a special interest due to the book containing some photos of the Walcott’s own amazing and extraordinarily bird-friendly garden.

Is anyone interested in purchasing George Adams book “Birdscaping Australian Gardens”? It’s an excellent and well regarded book that some people might not yet know. The earlier 1980 edition is recommended on the COG website http://canberrabirds.org.au/AttractingBirdsGarden.htm , this new edition is heavily updated.
CSIRO publishing description: http://www.publish.csiro.au/pid/6853.htm
George’s own website selected reviews: http://www.birdscaping.com.au/reviews.php
I have no interest in sales of this book other than hoping we can get numbers greater than one (my current request) to enable Roy to order them for a substantial discount via the COG book table.
If you are interested I suggest emailing Roy directly, cc’d above.
