Neighbourhood Nest

Maggie the magpie is very surprised when she finds an extra egg in her nest. Whose egg could it be? Does it belong to the kookaburras at the end of the path? Or the galahs by the oval? Or maybe the rainbow lorikeets in the gum trees? Maggie is on a mission across the sky and through the neighbourhood to find the egg's family.

From the bestselling creator of Down the Road, Little Bee comes a celebration of nature in our neighbourhoods and invitation to bird-watch in our own backyards.
