About the book

This humorous book follows the earlier successful publication of two similar books by Dr Jack. Picture driven, it features a collection of cartoons that lampoon birds on the basis of their common names. The author draws on some existing material, but also turns to the renaming of a number of southern African birds for fresh inspiration. The book is targeted specifically at South African twitchers, as well as more relaxed bird watchers and nature lovers in general – the perfect affordable gift for the birder who already has everything else.

About the Author

Dr Jack

Dr Jack

Dr Jack received his N.Dip for Graphic Design at the Pretoria Technikon, and then worked as official artist for South Africa's National Parks Board. During this time he produced the first Dr Jack's Illustrated South African Byrd book - a surprise success that reprinted twice, and was followed a year later by Dr Jack's Illustrated Second South African Byrd Book. Dr Jack is now a freelance cartoonist, focusing mainly on the printed media, and has worked for top publications throughout the country. He is an active birder himself, based in the Mpumalanga Lowveld, and assists the Lowveld Birding Club with illustrations for their regular newsletters.
