Rating:
Summary: love of birds, nature, & science
Review: from the book flap: With infinite patience they observed nest building, mating, egg laying, incubating, brooding, and care of the young...They came to feel accepted by the kinglet families they watched and were able to feed them by hand, pick them up, weigh them, and band them with no resistance or alarm...As he relates the stories of Noodnik, the fidelity of the kinglet parents, the nestlings who lost a parent, the female who confused her nest buidling with feeding her young, and many others, the reader will come to share their feelings of closeness with this forest creature.
