North on the Wing

Bruce Beehler, an ornithologist at the end of his career, sets off on a trek to follow the songbird migration of spring north. During his journey, he camps in a tent, rides a bike or kayaks through the woods and prairie, and takes a close look at all the great birding spots of America and Canada. It's a wonderful adventure for those of us who would never be able to take ourselves. Anyone who loves birding or even nature should pick up this book.
