Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

A SUNDAY TIMES NATURE BOOK OF THE YEAR

It''s flight and egg and feathers and song. It''s the demure plumage of a mountain thornbill and the extravagant tail feathers of an Indian paradise flycatcher, the solo song of a superb lyrebird and the perfectly timed duets of canebrake wrens, an osprey''s hurtling dive toward the sea, and a long-legged heron''s still, patient eyeing of the dark water.

There is no single bird way of being.

Drawing on personal observations, the latest science, and her bird-related travel around the world, Jennifer Ackerman playfully explores our dramatically shifting understanding of these magnificent animals.

''Jennifer Ackerman knows what she''s talking about...Her knack for catching the personalities of different species in gorgeous, playful prose further collapses comfortable barriers between the human and the birdlike'' Daily Telegraph

''The real joy of [this] book is its close attention to some of the specialists of the region... Ackerman is alive to the humour at play in field research '' Mark Cocker, Spectator
