Life everlasting : the animal way of death door Bernd Heinrich

An interesting exploration of how nature converts energy. I can understand how some people might find some of the stories upsetting… the author is an avid hunter and most animal lovers probably wince at the combination of the word slingshot with the word hummingbird. Still, there is a lot to learn here, from the contributions of birds and beetles to the role of man himself in the recycling of life on earth

The Trees in My Forest door Bernd Heinrich

Looking back, I see that I highlighted a surprising number of sections in this book. It is an exemplary nature book: informative (but avoiding mind-numbing academic data dumps) and evocative of the writer's personality.
