Birds art life death: a field guide to the small & significant by Kyo Maclear

emotional reflective slow-paced

4.0

 Birds Art Life Death focuses on a very different sort of birding. Going through a challenging time the author felt drawn to birds and shadows a birdwatcher for a year as he seeks out bird life within their city. This was quiet and contemplative, philosophical and meditative, looking not just at birds and the highs and lows of birding, but also at the human condition and the benefits of paying attention. Birding wise I enjoyed seeing the author’s skills develop and loved the message that there is plenty of nature to be seen in big cities and that we need to value that more.
