**************************************************
Notes:
Robert Braunfield, illustrator and contributor of one of the fifty light and original essays in this new book, will demonstrate his drawing during the presentation.
*Pishing is the art of attracting birds by mimicking their calls-- derived perhaps from saying 'pish, pish, pish' a few times in the hope that birds will be curious and come closer to investigate the sound.
