For May 28th, we’re reading:
1) Vulture: The Private Life of an Unloved Bird
After reading this book you will never look at a vulture in the same way again. Vulture follows a year in the life of a typical North American turkey vulture. By incorporating information from scientific papers and articles, as well as interviews with world-renowned raptor and vulture experts, author Katie Fallon examines all aspects of the bird’s natural history: breeding, incubating eggs, raising chicks, migrating, and roosting.
2) Better Living Through Birding: Notes from a Black Man in the Natural World
Christian Cooper is a self-described “Blerd” (Black nerd), an avid comics fan and expert birder who devotes every spring to gazing upon the migratory birds that stop to rest in
Central Park, just a subway ride away from where he lives in New York City. Better Living Through Birding recounts his experiences at home and around the world, conveying his story of learning to claim and defend space for himself and others like him through vivid and life-changing birding expeditions through Africa, Australia, the Americas, and the Himalayas.
