The woodcock - a mysterious, unpredictable, secretive bird, loved by so many sportsmen and naturalists alike. For centuries artists have been inspired by this iconic bird; its shape and colouring, its habitat and its migratory pattern.

In this book, eight leading sporting artists have their own chapter in which they portray the woodcock in their own unique style from pencil, watercolours and oils to outstanding sculptures. They are images to be treasured and they capture the woodcock in flight and on the ground.

A stunning book, beautifully designed and to be savoured by everyone whose blood begins to tingle when they catch sight of the woodcock silently flitting through the trees.

The Artists
Simon Gudgeon, Ben Hoskyns, Terence Lambert, Rodger McPhail, Alastair Proud, Jonathan Sainsbury, Keith Sykes and Owen Williams
