Review Quotes:
You just should not miss reading Birdbrains: A Lyrical Guide to Washington State Birds. Take this lyrical guidebook into the field, and form even stronger connections with birds and with the humans who love them.
-Dr. Ursula Valdez, Avian Ecologist and Conservationist, University of Washington
This wildly varied anthology invites us to pay attention to the feathered creatures who define the very air around us. Birds are nothing short of magic-as are these poems, which I know I'll return to just as surely as the robin that makes her hopeful nest under my eaves each spring.
-Keetje Kuipers, Editor-in-Chief, Poetry Northwest
