Is it just me, or does anyone else get an exicted frisson of shuddering when they go to a specialist wildlife bookshop or shop on a large reserve and see a selection of Poyser Monographs and their other books?

To me, they're almost in a way, pornographic (orni-porn?), or the sole Red-flanked Bluetail amongst a plethora of House Sparrows...... :mrgreen:

I aspire to one day winning a lot of money and getting their entire back catalogue!
