In her book Nesting Instincts, Maryjo Koch, the author and illustrator of the best-selling Bird Egg Feather Nest, blends her compellingly realistic artwork of birds, their nests, and their lifestyle with traditional wisdom and advice to create an inspirational and delightful celebration of home and family.

From prenesting courtship to nest building and sitting, then on through hatching and caring for the chicks, Nesting Instincts is a warm reminder of the joys, both great and small, of parenthood as illustrated through Koch’s superb watercolor artwork.

Nesting Instincts is the perfect gift for fans of Koch’s realistic depictions of nature’s beauty, as well as for moms of all varieties, from those just building their nests to those who lovingly keep their chicks safe and well fed.
