Welcome to Litsy!

Another good book about birding and the love of birds. If you like The Big Year you will like this book. Very narrative. You don‘t have to be a birder to appreciate his enthusiasm for birds.

Settled in to @LitStephanie recommendation today - The Big Year… which was an inspired recommendation after I‘d been reading the tagged book about a guy trying to spot 5,000 of the worlds birds in one calendar year. Loved the movie. Big thanks @LitStephanie

Thanks so much for the recommendation @LitStephanie my life could use some comedy right now - so I‘ve just purchased the DVD online for Qa.20! Bargain!

My bookseller recommended this to me this weekend - it looks fab. The author sets a target to see 5,000 bird species in one year ( half of the world‘s species) ! Wow!

Back from a long work trip. Now I think I‘ll try this now that I‘m finally home and relaxing while my lasagna cooks 🤘🏽

I received this book from my niece in Alaska! I love it already. I am a bird nerd and love travel books. Perfect

Puffins! Happy Earth Day 🌏

I‘m not into birdwatching myself, but I do find birds fascinating, and Strycker‘s AWESOME with sharing his enthusiasm and his wisdom in this book. He‘s a great storyteller, and very infectious to boot, so I wouldn‘t be surprised if this book brings a few readers over to the feathery side of life, so to speak XD.

Loved this! So many fascinating details about his time exploring different countries and their birds. As a casual bird watcher I‘m now determined to get a pair of binoculars and take it to the next level.
