In 2007, Richard Pope, a lifelong birder, embarked on his "Big Year," the object being to record at least 300 birds in Ontario within that calendar period. Not just another book on birding, Pope's unique approach is supported by an array of exceptional colour illustrations.
The human side of birding comes to the fore in this serious yet humorous account of birds and birding and the art of chasing rarities.
