The Nokomis Group

The Nokomis Group is owned and operated by Noleen Glavish and commenced trading in 1990 as a specialist publisher of high quality natural history books, portfolios, prints, gift cards and original artworks by Australian natural history artists.

In mid 2018, we expanded to include a NEW BOOKS division in addition to those published by the Nokomis Group. We are primarily a mail order business selling natural history, indigenous, Australian and general Australian history books and we ship worldwide. Our stock holding is extremely substantial and if you click on the New Books tab above, you will see that we are offering a comprehensive range of natural history new books which is predominantly Australian but covers all parts of the globe.

Natural history subjects include birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, invertebrates, botany, gardening, ecology, insects, marine, biology, aviculture, entomology and conservation. We are constantly adding new titles and will be happy to source any titles which may interest you if they are not already listed.

Regular mailings (usually monthly as I don't like clogging inboxes with endless mailings) are sent to clients and if you wish to be on the list, please complete the subscribe form.

Australians have long been enchanted by the dazzling colours and lively personalities of fairywrens. These tiny birds have captured our attention in gardens, parks, and forests across the country. Yet for all their charm, much of their remarkable private lives are hidden.

Lavishly illustrated with over 160 stunning photographs The Fairywrens of Australia showcases fairywrens as never before: every species, every plumage phase, and both sexes presented in vivid detail. Alongside these portraits are practical identification tables, explanations of behaviour, diet, breeding, habitat, and distribution.

The Fairywrens of Australia is dedicated to all ten Australian Fairywren species and draws on decades of ornithological study. This book is both a visual delight and an indispensable field reference – a true celebration of Australia’s most beloved small birds and an invitation to discover their world anew.
