Well Alison, you inspired me to hunt through my beautiful books. The most beautiful IS Audubon,s Birds of America, I don’t seem to have a similar one by Gould as that would take line honours. Another beautiful book I have is a photographic study of Nepal. Also A photographic study of the Birds of Columbia is full of wonderful hummingbirds.

A very interesting Scroll this month, our State Library is a fantastic asset to Melbourne.

Now I have to come back to Melbourne to see your library. I'm a huge fan of illustrated books, my favorite being my facsimile Kelmscott Chaucer, and on the less highbrow end love my Posy Simmonds graphic novels.
