It includes chapters on the evolution of ducks and geese, their place in the natural world, their anatomy and physiology, various feeding methods, spectacular courtship displays and diverse breeding behavior. Marianne Taylor will reveal their often epic migrations and examine their social interactions with their own and other species, including their unusual readiness to hybridize. She will also detail their relationships with humankind over the centuries, including their presence in folklore and literature and their role in our lives as both prey and pets. She will also explore their presence as feral and sometimes invasive species outside their natural ranges, and their current status within their native wild ranges as the group includes several species recently recognized as being of global conservation concern.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Marianne Taylor </b>is a freelance writer, illustrator, photographer and editor, and author of numerous natural history books, including the <i>RSPB British Birdfinder</i> and its recent companion title, <i>RSPB British Naturefinder</i>, as well as <i>The Way of the Hare</i>, <i>RSPB </i><i>British Birds of Prey</i>, and two previous titles in this series, <i>Spotlight </i><i>Owls</i> and <i>Spotlight Robins</i>.
