Much more fearsome than it seems :(\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe garden birds we think we know are often the most surprising. This guide presents 60 common species — those we encounter every day, from our windows or while out for a walk. Unlike classic ornithological guides, this one is actually meant to be read — from beginning to end, or by species, depending on your mood. Sandra Lefrançois's magnificent illustrations make identification easy, and Antoine Isambert's anecdotes stick with you, allowing us to truly get to know our feathered friends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAuthors: Antoine Isambert \u0026amp; Sandra Lefrançois\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: Éditions Ulmer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e60 illustrated species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: 14 x 19 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e128 pages\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntoine Isambert — author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePassionate about birds since the 1970s, Antoine Isambert grew up in the countryside, studied agriculture and botany, made a detour through Germany — before directing Éditions Ulmer for nearly 30 years.

She worked in nature reserves before collaborating with \u003cem\u003eTerre Sauvage\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eLa Salamandre\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eImages Nature\u003c\/em\u003e, and the British magazine \u003cem\u003eBirds\u003c\/em\u003e. She works with graphite lead — a style that combines speed and accuracy, capturing the essence of a bird as much as its form. Today, she focuses on landscapes and oil painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eÉditions Ulmer — publisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1868 in Ravensburg by Eugen Ulmer with a small program on fruit arboriculture, the publishing house moved to Stuttgart in 1874 and became a European reference for life sciences — gardening, agriculture, nature, and ecology. Managed by the same family since its creation, it has celebrated its 150th anniversary. The independent French branch has been established in Paris since 1993 — with Antoine Isambert himself at the helm for nearly 30 years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ULMER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58033499636057,"sku":"MV-ULM-004","price":14.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/3270\/9877\/files\/LESOISEAUXDENOSJARDINSETLEURVIESECRETE-ANTOINEISAMBERT.jpg?v=1778682114","url":"https:\/\/magasinvivant.com\/en\/products\/la-vie-simple-autonome-dans-son-jardin-mois-par-mois-samuel-lewis-copie","provider":"MAGASIN VIVANT!","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
