This title records a lifetime of looking at birds. It follows the birds' year from one summer to the next. Dee maps his own observations and encounters over four decades, tracking birds well-known and bizarre, flying free, in the nest, in his hand as he rings them, or dead and stuffed on his mantelpiece.

Dee has spent half a century watching and listening to birds in Britain and around the world. He clearly has a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to share, but my experience of the subject is so limited that much of it went over my head (almost literally), and I was left sympathising with his son's "comically wilful ornithological ignorance".
I was able to appreciate the quality of the writing, the range and arrangement of the subject matter and the many poets quoted, but I must admit that for me it was a bit of a struggle to read.
No criticism of the book, the writer or the subject intended! ( )
