''Bird'' is the universal call hawkwatchers use to let others know that a hawk is in the sky. Upon hearing it, binoculars are elevated, and the race is on to locate the migrating hawk before it disappears.

These species are counted by a group of citizen scientists who spend upward of nine hours a day looking up, identifying, and marking, the birds that pass. The book hopes to shed light on the people, the places, and the hawks themselves by teasing out the remarkable from an otherwise inconspicuous social activity. Twenty-two essays help to reveal the lure of hawkwatching. BINDING/CONDITION: paperbound; Very Good condition. 8vo (9 inches tall). 184 pages.…
