About this product
Product Information
The surprising, rich life of tree swallows in nesting season is delightfully explored by the acclaimed, award-winning naturalist Bernd Heinrich. Heinrich is sparked one early spring day by a question: Why does a pair of swallows in a nest box close to his Maine cabin show an unvarying preference for white feathers--not easily available nearby--as nest lining? He notices, too, the extreme aggressiveness of "his" swallows toward some other swallows of their own kind. And he wonders, given swallows' reputation for feistiness, at the extraordinary tameness and close contact he experiences with his nesting birds. From the author of the beloved books Ravens in Winter and A Naturalist at Large comes this richly engaging view of the lives of wild birds that, as always with Heinrich, yields "marvelous, mind-altering" insight and discoveries (Los Angeles Times).

PEN New England Award-winner and naturalist Heinrich again translates his painstaking fieldwork into a fascinating narrative...Natural history lovers will relish this intimate look at a small but vital part of nature., A fascinating narrative...Natural history lovers will relish this intimate look at a small but vital part of nature., Heinrich Writes Lyrically of the Joys of Field Research and the Way Research Sparks New Inquiries., A search for the answer to a seemingly trivial question--why do tree swallows line their nests with white feathers?--reveals much about the nesting behavior of these wild birds but even more about the lifestyle of a dedicated scientist.
