by Sy Montgomery
This slim book is packed with insight into birds of prey. The author describes the story of her falconry lessons and eventual apprenticeship in New Hampshire. She weaves facts about the physiology and intellect of the birds, and the process of training them to hunt as partners with a falconer. As a lifelong birder, I found it was like glimpsing a world I thought I understood from a whole new perspective.
