"In the beautiful mountains of Northwest Connecticut is the Sharon Audubon Center, where I often went to clear my bird brain by looking at birds. I was hooked on John J. Audubon’s illustrations of flying marvels he had painted over a century earlier, and I had always believed that Audubon was the sine qua non of naturalist artists. Well, this fall, Field Notes, the memo books that have been flying out of stores and into designers’ hands for years, proved me wrong. The limited-edition 'Birds and Trees of North America' set features six beautiful birds painted by Rex Brasher (1869–1960), a new-to-me naturalist whose monumental compendium gives the edition its name. They are designed for birders, nature lovers and drawing fanciers of all kinds."
