A few Dominic Couzens‘ books have a look at the weird within the chook world. Excessive Birds: The World’s Most Extraordinary and Weird Birds and Tales of Outstanding Birds are positively birds that most individuals gained’t discover of their neighbourhoods.

Margaret Renkl’s The Consolation of Crows: A Yard 12 months follows a yr in her life and the pure world she encounters.

Katie Fallon writes about Turkey Vultures in Vulture: The Personal Lifetime of an Unloved Chicken. She shares details about this chook, which is commonly misunderstood and regarded as predatory. It could look ugly, but it surely helps us in so some ways, by cleansing up germ-carrying carcasses.

Naturalist Lyanda Lynn Haupt writes about birds nearer to dwelling in Uncommon Encounters with Strange Birds. Via her observations, you study that no chook is simply frequent. In Mozart’s Starling, Haupt writes about that non-native species and its unfavourable impact on birds and the surroundings in North America. However after rescuing and elevating a younger starling, she is charmed by its intelligence and playfulness. Her books are thought-provoking.
