Some birds are so commonplace it’s easy to forget how extraordinary they are. These creatures have a secret eyelid, hollow bones and a two-part brain. They dress in feathers. Omnibird, explores what’s remarkable about the birds all around us and the clues we can all use to become avian investigators.
