Title: Must-read for Birders
Review: Birders will love this book! First, it contains solid information on the vast movement of life about the face of our planet. Second, it provides useful information on where to be and when to be there to experience "fallout" and "kettles of hawks" and other exotic aspects of the hobby. Third, it documents the pure pleasures of our hobby from the standpoint of someone who does it extremely well. This book is not an academic exercise nearly so much as it is a celebration of beauty and wonder - which is, after all, why most of us enjoy birding. With Roger Tory Peterson gone, birding needs another hero. I am not suggesting that anyone will ever fill those shoes, but Mr. Weidensaul deserves your attention. This book will expand your awareness and make you a better birder.
