Inhaltsangabe

The book begins in 1959, when the author was born, setting the scene and defining what a birduder is, in Rob Sawyer's eyes 'A person who can identify some birds and study them in their natural habitats but is easily distracted by pubs, restaurants, music and crosswords. Birduders don't twitch.' That actually sums up his book quite nicely. This is not the usual birdwatching book. Covering five decades, Sawyer tells his tales about his passion for anything flying, including insects, birds and planes, with lively stories that entertain and make you laugh. Always interested to update and add to his life list, he starts with a big white bird (White Stork) and ends with no. 344, a big brown one, a White-tailed Eagle. Rob Sawyer trained in engineering and now works as a consultant on medical devices. Travelling widely, he came across many birds in many countries, but has always remained loyal to the UK bird fauna, his favourite. This is his first book.
