Download or read book The Eagle Watchers written by Ruth Tingay and published by Comstock Publishing Associates. This book was released on 2011-01-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eagles have fascinated humans for millennia. For some, the glimpse of a distant eagle instantly becomes a treasured lifelong memory. Others may never encounter a wild eagle in their lifetime. This book was written by people who have dedicated years to the study of eagles, to provide an insider's view for all readers, but especially those who have never been up close and personal with these magnificent yet often misunderstood creatures. In their stories, twenty-nine leading eagle researchers share their remarkable field experiences, providing personal narratives that don't feature in their scientific publications. They tell of their fear at being stalked by grizzly bears, their surprise at being followed by the secret police, their embarrassment when accidentally firing mortar rockets over a school gymnasium, and their sense of awe at tracking eagles via satellite. The reader experiences the cultural shock of being guest of honor at a circumcision ceremony, the absurdity of sharing an aquatic car with the Khmer Rouge, and the sense of foreboding at being press-ganged into a frenzied tribal death march through the jungle. The Eagle Watchers covers twenty-four species on six continents, from well known (bald eagle; golden eagle), to obscure (black-and-chestnut eagle; New Guinea harpy eagle), and from common (African fish eagle) to critically endangered (Philippine eagle; Madagascar fish eagle). The diverse experiences vividly described in this book reveal the passion, dedication, and sense of adventure shared by those who study these majestic birds and strive for their conservation. Featuring stunning color photographs of the eagles, information on raptor conservation, a global list of all eagle species with ranges and conservation status, and a color map of the sites visited in the book, The Eagle Watchers will appeal to birders, conservationists, and adventure travelers alike. To further support the conservation programs described in this book, all royalties are being donated to two leading nonprofit organizations for raptor conservation training and fieldwork: Hawk Mountain Sanctuary Intern Program and the National Birds of Prey Trust.
Book Synopsis Extinct and Vanishing Birds of the World by : James Cowan Greenway
Download or read book Extinct and Vanishing Birds of the World written by James Cowan Greenway and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Since the disappearance of the last dodo some 280 years ago, over 130 species and subspecies of birds have completely disappeared or have become seriously threatened with extinction. The passenger pigeon, Labrador duck, great auk, the nearly extinct ivory-billed woodpecker and whooping crane are but a few of the many varieties of parrot, owl, thrush, honeycreeper, duck, sparrow, etc., which have been wiped out, usually due to man's interference. Greenway's book is the first up-to-date, comprehensive survey of extinct and vanishing birds, and, as such, it serves as a strong warning about steps which must be taken to prevent the total disappearance of the threatened species. He begins with an area-by-area survey of important lost and disappearing birds, carefully noting all possible causes for their disappearance. Then, each species and subspecies is discussed individually, with detailed information on nomenclature, last sightings, range, description, habits, and similar material." --Back cover.

Download or read book The Vanishing Ice written by Iain Cameron and published by Vertebrate Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are few more beautiful places than Scotland's winter mountains. But even when most of the snow has melted, isolated patches can linger well into summer and beyond. In The Vanishing Ice, Iain Cameron chronicles these remarkable and little-seen relics of the Ice Age, describing how they have fascinated travellers and writers for hundreds of years, and reflecting on the impact of climate change. Iain was nine years old when snow patches first captured his imagination, and they have been inextricably bound with his life ever since. He developed his expertise through correspondence (and close friendship) with research ecologist Dr Adam Watson, and is today Britain's foremost authority on this weather phenomenon. Iain takes us on a tour of Britain which includes the Scottish Highlands, the Southern Uplands, the Lake District and Snowdonia, seeking elusive patches of snow in wild and often inaccessible locations. His adventures include a perilous climb in the Cairngorms with comedian Ed Byrne, and glorious days spent out on the hills with Andrew Cotter and his very good dogs, Olive and Mabel. Based on sound scientific evidence and personal observations, accompanied by stunning photography and wrapped in Iain's shining passion for the British landscape, The Vanishing Ice is a eulogy to snow, the mountains and the great outdoors.

Book Synopsis Return of the Eagle by : Greg Breining
Download or read book Return of the Eagle written by Greg Breining and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2008-02-26 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of how a nation reversed a “silent spring” and saved the bald eagle from extinction. This bird of prey was declared the national symbol in 1782 but, by the 1960s, pollution and development had wiped out all but a few dozen. Grassroots movements started, the American consciousness was raised to all environmental threats, and federal laws were passed to keep the eagle population alive. This stunning book of full-color photographs and touching stories chronicles this inspiring success story with awe-inspiring shots of eagles in flight. There is also a one-of-a-kind directory to more than 150 areas in the nation where eagles are likely to be seen in the wild, soaring once again against the blue skies of freedom. This book is a monument to the efforts that combined animal instinct for survival with the power of the human spirit to change the world.
Book Synopsis Changing Is Not Vanishing by : Robert Dale Parker
Download or read book Changing Is Not Vanishing written by Robert Dale Parker and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-06-03 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now, the study of American Indian literature has tended to concentrate on contemporary writing. Although the field has grown rapidly, early works—especially poetry—remain mostly unknown and inaccessible. Changing Is Not Vanishing simultaneously reinvents the early history of American Indian literature and the history of American poetry by presenting a vast but forgotten archive of American Indian poems. Through extensive archival research in small-circulation newspapers and magazines, manuscripts, pamphlets, rare books, and scrapbooks, Robert Dale Parker has uncovered the work of more than 140 early Indian poets who wrote before 1930. Changing Is Not Vanishing includes poems by 82 writers and provides a full bibliography of all the poets Parker has identified—most of them unknown even to specialists in Indian literature. In a wide range of approaches and styles, the poems in this collection address such topics as colonialism and the federal government, land, politics, nature, love, war, Christianity, and racism. With a richly informative introduction and extensive annotation, Changing Is Not Vanishing opens the door to a trove of fascinating, powerful poems that will be required reading for all scholars and readers of American poetry and American Indian literature.
