The Glitter in the Green: In Search of Hummingbirds by Jon Dunn
adventurous

informative
medium-paced
4.0
This is a book about a man travelling to many different locales looking for hummingbirds. Half the book is just his experiences travelling to different places. A travelogue. He's nice, and he writes well, but he, as a character, is boring. A quarter of the book is about hummingbirds and another quarter is about their history and other's experiences of hummingbirds. That's where the money is!
Minor: Animal cruelty and Animal death
Includes descriptions and discussions of poaching and illegal animal trade.
