Lyanda Lynn Haupt, an ornithological researcher and birding teacher, muses on the much-tarnished reputation of the starling; the sexed-up behaviour of male woodpeckers, which drives homeowners crazy; and the mysterious behaviour and population explosion of crows in Northwest urban neighbourhoods. With a deft touch, sly humour and an engaging style, Haupt shares her bountiful knowledge of all things ornithological.
