Did you know that many species of birds have sensory abilities that surpass those of humans? Or that some birds spend the entire winter in the air, and even sleep while flying? Have you ever wondered why birds have feathers? Or why they are a particular color? Maybe you're more interested in "how" questions: How do birds actually fly or swim? How and why do some birds migrate? How do they find food? Birds are not only beautiful and fascinating, but they also serve an essential role in our ecosystem. This book shows how birds and humans are intrinsically connected, sometimes helping and sometimes hindering each other. Perfect for anyone who simply delights in noticing birds in their neighborhood, readers can explore, share, and return to the pages again and again, each time gaining a broader appreciation for our enchanting feathered friends.
