Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A heart-warming story about nature, birds, and a family tradition.
A boy and his mom continue the family tradition of participating in the annual bird count. Since Gramps went South for the winter, the boy hopes to spot Gramps's favorite bird for him--a dove! But with so many different birds in the nature preserve, will he be able to spot one? This heart-warming family story about nature celebrates a holiday census that was first started in 1900 and happens every year.
As a boy and his mother participate in the annual bird count, he misses his grandfather, who went south for the winter, and watches especially for Gramps' favorite bird. Includes facts about the history and purpose of the Christmas Bird Count, how to participate, and a bird checklist.
