Summary:
"“You are a rare bird, easy to see but invisible just the same.” That thought is close at hand in
Sparrow
Envy
:
Field
Guide
to
Birds
and
Lesser
Beasts
, as renowned naturalist and writer J. Drew Lanham explores his obsession with
birds
and all things wild in a mixture of poetry and prose. He questions vital assumptions taken for granted by so many birdwatchers: can birding be an escape if the birder is not in a safe place? Who is watching him as he watches
birds
? With a refreshing balance of reverence and candor, Lanham paints a unique portrait of the natural world: listening to cicadas, tracking sandpipers, towhees, wrens, and cataloging fellow birdwatchers at a conference where he is one of two black birders. The resulting insights are as honest as they are illuminating."--Publisher.
