10,000 Birds

MARCH 2, 2011

Time to give away a wonderful book on 10,000 Birds! Because this field guide is so darn good ( read my review here ) AND signed by two of those responsible for bringing the book to completion, we need to make this giveaway a little more involved than usual. Birders Library Mar 3rd, 2011 at 8:30 pm Great book. It is that awesome!

They really appeared to enjoy this, because as soon as they swam back to the rocks they would line up again to repeat the experience. I can imagine myself inside the Brazilian Atlantic Rain Forest (with the book in my bag), checking every movement, searching for this almost legendary creature and of course jumping in joy when finding it!

Here are some observations: When reading a book about gorillas to/with a seven-year old, I was struck by the mixed messages the book sent. Here 's the book, and in the preview you can see that in the beginning when the gorilla being described is male he is referred to as "he." We do that with cats and dogs already, right?

But after repeated good experiences with birders as individuals, Mr Jordan has consented to allow the bird to be made public before it leaves. Shouldn’t you be reading a book instead?
