A window on the world of birders-obsessive, passionate, quirky, and always interesting
"Like bird watching itself, reading Birdmania is filled with surprises and a sense of discovery. But in this collection it is the watchers, not the birds, who are on display - ornithologists and bird lovers of every description, revealed in sketches and anecdotes that are quirky, intriguing, and always affectionate. Highly enjoyable." - Thor Hanson, author of Feathers: The Evolution of a Natural Miracle
