“The art and science of enjoying the birds in your own backyard. Are you a Slow Birder? I am! I take the time to watch the birds I see. I learn about them. I am not a motor birder, speeding from one roadside to another to add a bird or two to the day’s list. I prefer to take my time watching birds and let them bring wilderness to my life. I have written a book on this kind of birding and on the stories of 16 common birds and the scientists that study them. It is called Slow Birding,out in October 2022 – Penguin Random House is published it.”
