      A wonderfully written and personal exploration of the mysterious world of birds through a single year.

      ''A beautiful book'' Tim Birkhead, author of Bird Sense
      ''The prose is sublime, and so is the intelligence behind it'' Bel Mooney, Daily Mail

      The extraordinary world of birds has the power to change lives, as it did the author''s. The pleasure and fascination of bird-watching, together with the silence and stillness involved, can play a part in changing the way that we live our lives - and can help us when we have to deal with adversity.

      Personal and elegiac, Waiting for the Albino Dunnock shows us how beauty is central to our emotional wellbeing, and reminds us of the careless damage we are inflicting on the natural world. This glorious pilgrimage into the soaring world of birds opens our eyes afresh to the beauty which surrounds us.
