Book Description Condition: new. (Hardcover, 1996). 1996 1st edition. Folio (264 x 300mm). Pp79. Colour plates by Tunnicliffe, illustrations, map, bibliography. Untitled maroon boards. Some pages sticking with some damage (mainly to edges so not affecting text or plates) otherwise new in dust-wrapper. "One early summer day on a routine birdwatching trip to the seacliffs of north west Anglesey the artist Charles Tunnicliffe came upon a nesting pair of Peregrine falcons. The sight of these magnificent birds thrilled him. For the following weeks he was to concentrate on drawing the falcons, recording their flight, their brooding and rearing of two chicks and the final departure of the family in some of his finest sketches. This book includes all the colour illustrations Tunnicliffe made when, inspired by the beauty and grandeur of his subjects, he filled his sketchbook with one marvellous painting after another. His diary of the days with the falcons is reproduced alongside the pictures. The introduction by a well-known bird artist of today, Robert Gillmor, puts Tunnicliffe's work in context, and in an authoritative summary Dr. Derek Ratcliffe, author of the standard monograph on the Peregrine, discusses the history and conservation of the Anglesey birds." .
