It took me a while to wrap my mind around the concept of Birds and People , Mark Cocker and David Tipling’s book that, in 592 pages, explores the intersection of just that—birds and us. Nor have I overlooked “sightings” of birds in movies mouthing other birds’ calls. I’m not sure why.

In answer to the oft-asked question, “What is your favourite bird”, I can usually only narrow it down to three families; Rails, Cuckoos and Owls. Bitterns are birds of fable. The names are supposed to pertain to various odd behaviours observed by cold, wet bittern hunters. They are birds of cold, grey days.

Of course not, it’s rainforest!
