Exactly my sort of thing - Alex Horne.
I do hope Jonny's book finds its people (and their birds)! - Rob Macfarlane.
It is a little known fact that most men, at some point in their lives, will have a bird on their head. Think of statues, wildlife documentary presenters, tourists in Trafalgar Square....
This delightfully eccentric book is an informative field guide to our native birds, referencing author Jonny Fox's tireless efforts to find – and paint – each precarious pairing of man and bird. Funny and charming, wistful and unique, Men with Birds on Their Heads celebrates our native wildlife as well as our native people.
From a butcher with a turkey perched on his head, to a Beefeater with a raven gripping his Tudor bonnet, the pairings and the (often fanciful) stories that accompany them champions everyday people who, like so many of our birds, fly under the radar.
It also shines a light on the wonderful work that many nature enthusiasts are doing in various rewilding projects, and offers tips on simple changes people can do at home to keep declining species of birds alive.
You will never look at a bird in the same way again - or a man with one on his head.©2026 Jonny Fox (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Men with Birds on their Heads is a really playful and charming book, full of wonderfully characterful paintings. More than anything, it left me wanting to slow down, step outside, and spend a little more time in the company of birds. (James Norbury)
