'A Shorebird Flying Adventure' is on its way!

Coming in June 2022

A Shorebird Flying Adventure co-created with Milly Formby, illustrated by Milly and published by the CSIRO.

So excited to be working on this book with Milly. I live in an area of Melbourne fringed by wetlands that provide habitat for these threatened species.

Join Milly in her microlight around Australia to discover how amazing and awesome migratory shorebirds are!

In A Shorebird Flying Adventure you’ll meet brilliant birds who travel phenomenal distances every year and explore their precious wetland habitats and breeding grounds. Discover fascinating facts about their diet and find out Milly’s top tips to tell one species from another. Grab your binoculars, hop on board and let’s go bird watching.

*Amellia ‘Milly’ Formby is a pilot, zoologist, illustrator and bird nerd! Follow her amazing journey around Australia at Wing Threads. Milly is planning a flight around OZ to raise awarness for migratory shorebirds. She will be visiting schools, libraries and wetlands.
