About What it’s Like to be a Bird

An exhibition of illustrations and related artworks from the book 'What it's Like to be a Bird' written by Tim Birkhead and illustrated by Catherine Rayner.

Catherine is an award winning author and illustrator based in Edinburgh. She has written over 20 books for children. In 2021 she illustrated words written by Tim Birkhead to create a non-fiction book about birds aimed at a young audience.
