Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Birds offer endless fascination for those of us patient or lucky enough to catch a glimpse. Fortunately, award-winning writer Jane Yolen and photographer Jason Stemple once again give readers the chance to closely observe a brand-new flock of these creatures in expertly rendered poetry and photographs. Each poem and picture combination beautifully and thoughtfully captures both bird and a moment of time. Brief facts about each bird, reviewed by an ornithologist, are included.
The regal eagle -- Chickadee-dee -- Haiku for a cool kingfisher -- A solitary wood duck -- Whooo is the great horned owl? -- Terns galore -- Northern mockingbird : a threesome haiku -- Oystercatchers on parade -- Eastern kingbird : the flying ninja -- Questions to ask a hooded merganser -- Cedar waxwings unmasked -- Sandpipers' haiku -- Rufous-sided towhee -- Creation of the marbled godwit.
Poetry about birds plus facts about and photographs of birds.
