The book was a 2010 prize winner in the Writer's Digest Annual Competition for memoirs.

Jim and Nancy are on the remote Isle of Harris in the Outer Hebrides on the look out for eagles. They also enjoy a catch up with Edwyn Collins.Jim and Nancy will also try their hand at an array of artistic techniques during their travels, such as creating linocuts of stilts and golden plovers in Wrexham, learning about the local community project The Hide Sculpture in Fingal, Dublin and using traditional Chinese ink and calligraphy brushes to paint Loch Mallochie in the Scottish Highlands. A brush with nature. (Image credit: Sky) Painting Birds with Jim and Nancy Moir season 2 — will there be a second season? Jim: “When we were looking for the eagle it was touch and go on whether we’d see it or not. I don’t want to give anything away but it was pretty close!” Kominsky's series Paint Along with Nancy comprised 52 half-hour programmes made by HTV West from 1974 to 1978, and transmitted on ITV network in the United Kingdom. Jim Moir is best known for his alter ego Vic Reeves and comedy partnership with Shooting Stars’ Bob Mortimer, but there’s another aspect to the funnyman. He’s a prolific artist and a devoted birdwatcher. In Painting Birds, Jim teams up with his wife Nancy to travel around the UK and share his two lifelong passions.

The series is produced by Drum Studios, part of Omnicom Media Group, headed by Andy Holland. Danny Carvalho and Sadia Butt are the executive producers.Nancy: “I learned how the golden eagle shows off to woo the female. They fly higher and higher, drop a stone and, as it falls, go around until it gets near the bottom and then scoop it up. It’s just amazing.” I think everyone's an artist. A lot of people think art is about being able to draw in a classical style. You don't need that. Art can be whatever you want it to be. Throw paint at a canvas and hang it on the wall — that’s art.” Painting Birds season 1 — locations and celebrity guests Sky Arts have confirmed Painting Birds with Jim and Nancy Moir will return for a second six-part series, following the huge success of series one, which has had the biggest series launch on Sky Arts this year so far.
