Among the Birds
"Within these pages, you'll find delight, wisdom, and wonder."-Sy Montgomery, author of The Hummingbirds' Gift
A delight for devoted birders, curious nature lovers, and casual backyard watchers alike, from two beloved local talents
Fresh, experiential personal essays featuring more than 70 Pacific Northwest birds by a New York Times bestselling author
Vibrant, colorful illustrations by an award-winning Northwest artist
Accessible natural history with a focus on conservation
Among the Birds is an enchanting celebration of the Pacific Northwest's birds, brought to life by New York Times-bestselling author and naturalist Lyanda Lynn Haupt. Readers join Haupt on a wandering journey through the region's avian world, drifting intuitively among species, much like you encounter birds on a neighborhood amble, forest trail, or windy shoreline. More than 70 feathered residents and seasonal visitors make an appearance, connected through experience, memory, and the serendipity of daily life outdoors.
Haupt's signature voice-lyrical, curious, gently humorous, and deeply observant-infuses each vignette with delight and insight. She blends personal moments with natural history, offering a closer look at the habits, habitats, and captivating quirks of birds such as Steller's Jay, Anna's Hummingbird, Merlin, Black Oystercatcher, American Dipper, Caspian Tern, and many more.
Acclaimed artist Justin Gibben's richly detailed illustrations blend realism and whimsy to highlight each bird's distinct personality-and perfectly complement Haupt's stories to spark wonder, cultivate attentiveness, and remind us of our role in caring for the wild lives that thrive alongside us.
