The Bird Way: A New Look at How Birds Talk, Work, Play, Parent, and Think, by Jennifer Ackerman

3.0

I kept thinking while listening to this that it should have simply been titled “Bird Facts”. This is essentially a collection of avian observances and bird related ephemera that ultimately boil down to everything you wanted to know about birds (but maybe didn’t want to ask). Much of the book focuses on the more ‘intelligent’ bird species – magpies and the like. Probably because chickens are not that interesting. Obviously this would be great material for birders and avian enthusiasts.
