Margaret’s Reviews > Ten Birds That Changed the World > Status Update

Chapter 5 Darwin’s Finches is my favorite so far. The early chapters seemed heavy and plodding. This chapter skipped merrily along. The way Darwin did and did not actually focus on Finches as the proof of evolution is fascinating. I learned about adaptive radiation.

A mix of myth, science and history. A bit dry. Probably a good read for people seriously interested in birds. No humor or light hearted mess, which I am missing

First chapter on Ravens. What’s not to love?

Does it surprise anyone that I’ve offered to help Denver Audubon Society facilitate a new book club about birds with intersections on art, mindfulness and literature? I hope they pick me. This is their first book?
