Ploterre Bird Colour Swatch Book

The colours of British garden birds are truly remarkable—from the bright yellow of a goldfinch to the soft purples of a wood pigeon. But have you ever wondered which colour dominates our gardens the most?

Using data from the Garden Bird Watch Survey and image analysis of RSPB illustrations, this beautifully crafted book answers that question. Featuring 100 colours from the 20 most common UK garden birds, ranked by their prevalence and dominant hues, it presents a fascinating new way to experience birdlife—through colour.

Designed in the style of a Pantone swatch book, it allows for easy comparison of shades and includes insights into the process behind the research. Finished with a solid brass binding screw, it’s both a tactile and visual delight.
