"Photographer Robert Clark became fascinated with the beauty and
utility of bird feathers while on assignment for National
Geographic in 2004. His mastery of the science, photographic
possibilities, and 200-million-year history of the plume is evident
in Feathers: Displays of Brilliant Plumage (Chronicle). The
striking colors and gorgeous patterns represent a global avian
fashion show." --Boston Globe
