Download or read book Golden Wings and Other Stories about Birders and Birding written by Pete Dunne and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2003-04-01 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dubbed the "Bard of America's Bird-Watchers" by the Wall Street Journal, Pete Dunne knows birders and birding—instinctively and completely. He understands the compulsion that drives other birders to go out at first light, whatever the weather, for a chance to maybe, just maybe, glimpse that rare migrant that someone might have spotted in a patch of woods the day before yesterday. And yet, he also knows how . . . well . . . strange the birding obsession becomes when viewed through the eyes of a nonbirder. His dual perspective—totally engrossed in birding, yet still aware of the "odd birdness" of some birders—makes reading his essays a pure pleasure whether you pursue "the feather quest" or not. This book collects forty-one of Dunne's recent essays, drawn from his columns in Living Bird, Wild Bird News, the New Jersey Sunday section of the New York Times, Birder's World, and other publications. Written with his signature wit and insight, they cover everything from a moment of awed communion with a Wandering Albatross ("the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen") to Dunne's imagined "perfect bird" ("The Perfect Bird is the size of a turkey, has the wingspan of an eagle, the legs of a crane, the feet of a moorhen, and the talons of a great horned owl. It eats kudzu, surplus zucchini, feral cats, and has been known to predate upon homeowners who fire up their lawn mowers before 7:00 A.M. on the weekend."). The title essay pays whimsical, yet heartfelt tribute to Dunne's mentor, the late birding legend Roger Tory Peterson.

Download or read book My Life With Wings: And Other Stories written by Hal Marcovitz and published by Covered Bridge Press. This book was released on 2021-12-23 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine waking one morning to discover you have wings. Imagine the places you could go and sights you could see as you soar high above the world looking down with a true bird's eye view. In this very funny yet strange story, our hero Eggerton wrestles with these decisions as he contemplates what to do with his life when he rises from bed and learns he possesses the power of winged flight. In this update to the original 2014 edition, the author has added some timely cultural references as well as three humorous, yet somewhat macabre, short stories. Readers will also find the opening chapters of a surreal unpublished novel that explores the inner psyche of an ordinary house spider. And as with the original version, the author has included dozens of odd images that blend into the story. When My Life With Wings was first published the book won several literary awards, including the Beverly Hills Book Award in the New Fiction category. The book was also a finalist for the Eric Hoffer Award Montaigne Medal and the Hoffer Grand Prize.
