Black Woodpecker book progress

Almost everything is ready... the manuscript just needs fine-tuning, I am now writing captions for the photographs, the waveforms of drumming and sonograms of calls. The colour plates are nearly ready, too, and the drawings under way. It has been a huge task, but my book will soon be at the publishers ready to be edited and designed. Here is a sneak preview of a draft sketch of one of Szabolcs Kokay's black and white illustrations for the book. Just to whet your appetite.

This is great. The Black Woodpecker is an awesome species. Great to see that a book is coming.
Looking forward to reading it.

Will this be available via amazon?
