Feather Trails: A Journey of Discovery Among Endangered Birds by: Osborn, Sophie A. H.

Feather Trails: A Journey of Discovery Among Endangered Birds
by: Osborn, Sophie A. H.

Hardcover. White River Junction VT, Chelsea Green Publishing , 1st, 2024, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright dust jacket, 367 pages. In Feather Trails, wildlife biologist and birder Sophie A. H. Osborn reveals how the harmful environmental choices we've made--including pesticide use, the introduction of invasive species, lead poisoning, and habitat destruction--have decimated Peregrine Falcons, Hawaiian Crows, and California Condors. In the Rocky Mountains, the cloud forests of Hawaii, and the Grand Canyon, Sophie and her colleagues work day-to-day to try to reintroduce these birds to the wild, even when it seems that the odds are steeply stacked against their survival. With humor and suspense, Feather Trails introduces us to the fascinating behaviors and unique personalities of Sophie's avian charges and shows that what endangers them ultimately threatens all life on our planet.

Flying Blind: One Man's Adventures Battling Buckthorn, Making Peace with Authority, and Creating a Home for Endangered Bats (SIGNED COPY)
by: Mitchell, Don

Hardcover. White River Jct VT, Chelsea Green Publishing, 1st, 2013, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. SIGNED BY MITCHELL on title page and INSCRIBED on the front fly leaf. Novelist and shepherd Mitchell presents this account of what happened after a biologist from the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department asked for permission to track bats on his farm. The author having been an iconoclast since his youth, the book is as much a story about a back-to-the-land Vermont farmer coming to collaborate with government as the story of the bats for whose benefit the forested land was managed. This idealist muses on the process of balancing concerns of money, ecology, independence and co-dependence, wrapping up the book with insights learned in convoluted manner about nature, society, and himself.

Solitary Goose (INSCRIBED COPY)by: Sydney Landon Plum

Solitary Goose (INSCRIBED COPY)
by: Sydney Landon Plum

Hardcover. Athens GA, University of Georgia Press, 1st, 2007, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright dust jacket, 135 pages. INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR on the title page. In the fall of 1996 Sydney Plum encountered a solitary Canada goose on a pond near her home in New England. Caring for the animal became a way for her to reconnect with nature. Walks to the pond were daily rituals--reflective times during which Plum thought about the relationships between humans and animals. Mixing memoir with closely observed nature writing, Plum searches for a deeper understanding of what was changed by the experience with the solitary goose she named SG. In the tradition of Elizabeth Marshall Thomas, Plum writes lyrical lessons on the life cycle of geese, the mystery of their great migratory patterns, and their amazing adaptability. Canada geese were not always so plentiful in the United States, she explains, nor were they always denigrated as "flying carp." Plum shows how species-management programs reestablished the birds outside their previous range at the same time as golf courses, office parks, and suburban ponds began dotting the countryside, providing them with prime habitats where they were unwanted.

The completed drawings were sent to his patron in London, and these make up the bulk of the collection held at London's Natural History Museum. Still in publisher's shrinkwrap.

The Birds of Pandemoniumby: Michele Raffin

The Birds of Pandemonium
by: Michele Raffin

Hardcover. Chapel Hill NC, Algonquin Books, 1st, 2014, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket, 240 pages. Each morning at first light, Michele Raffin steps outside into the bewitching bird music that heralds another day at Pandemonium Aviaries. A full symphony that swells from the most vocal of more than 350 avian throats representing more than 40 species. "It knocks me out, every day," she says. Pandemonium, the home and bird sanctuary that Raffin shares with some of the world's most remarkable birds, is a conservation organization dedicated to saving and breeding birds at the edge of extinction, with the goal of eventually releasing them into the wild. In The Birds of Pandemonium, she lets us into her world--and theirs. Birds fall in love, mourn, rejoice, and sacrifice; they have a sense of humor, invent, plot, and cope. They can teach us volumes about the interrelationships of humans and animals.
