A Guide to the Birds of East Africa


#568
Title: A Guide to the Birds of East AfricaAuthor: Nicholas Drayson
Publisher: Mariner
Year: 2008/2009
206 pages

A sweet little novel, refreshing in its lack of slaughter and mayhem. The premise, that who may ask the lady on a date will be decided by bird sightings, is especially fun for birders, as is the triumphal moment of the contest. Each chapter is headed with a charming sketch of a bird.
