Review:
Zen Birding is a truly wonderful book. I wish it had existed decades ago, because then it's gentle insight and great intelligence would have led earlier to what has become for me the primacy of watching birds. --Alan Tennant, author of the New York Times Bestseller On The Wing: To The Edge Of The Earth With The Peregrine Falcon
By teaching a delightful mix of patience, humility, and good cheer, Zen Birding will make you a better birder. --Mark Obmascik, national bestseller, The Big Year: A Tale of Man, Nature, and Fowl Obsession and Halfway to Heaven, 2009 National Outdoor Book Award for Outdoor Literature
Through observational vignettes and musings on the nature of birds, Zen Birding presents an approach to mindfulness and humility in the presence of nature that truly enables the reader to see "the tracks of birds across the sky." --Tom Jervis, President, New Mexico Audubon Society
Birding and all nature connections are beneficial to the soul, and to our physical and mental well being. --Doug Trent, Focus Tours

Book Description Paperback. Condition: New. As a result of his lifelong passion for birding, David White began writing Zen Birding during cancer treatment, combining his anthropological point of view and his unique perspective that birds are not just objects to be pursued and counted, but rather are sentient beings with whom we share the planet. His work as an anthropologist and many years of participation in the Los Angeles and Santa Fe chapters of the Audubon Society bring a depth and richness to the book. (David was a Board member of the Los Angeles chapter and Vice President of the Sangre de Cristo Chapter of the Audubon Society in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and a field trip leader.)rnSusan Guyette finished writing Zen Birding as a way to honor his passion for birding and commitment to the connectedness of all life on this planet. An anthropologist as well, she weaves into Zen Birding her Métis Native American perspective (Micmac and French Arcadian) of cultural preservation and environmental sustainability. She has written three books on Native American and rural development and specializes in cultural preservation efforts, museums, and cultural tourism. She currently writes a monthly column called Everyday Green in the Green Fire Timern. Seller Inventory # 13367
