Bright Wings: An Illustrated Anthology of Poems About Birds by Billy Collins

3.0

I loved that this collection was varied poets, all with a unique style and preference for writing poetry. I also loved that the subject happened to be one of my favorites - birds. I think I was hoping for a bit more with this. The artwork was stunning, but the poetry was more about just observations and after 250 pages of observations I don't care what bird I'm looking at, the colors might be different but the descriptions get a bit repetitive. Overall enjoyable, although it took my some time to really digest through it. It's a pretty thick collection.
