On #NationalBirdDay here's a sneak peek at the first image of my proposed bird book. Over the next 2 years I'll be photographing everything from Chickens to Eagles! Abe is a Great Grey Owl, part of the @LondonFalconry team. Any suggestions of 'must have' birds for this book? pic.twitter.com/R9bIH0o2ru
