To See Every Bird on Earth: A Father, a Son, and a Lifelong Obsession by Dan Koeppel
Requirements: ePUB or MOBI Reader, 1.2MB
Overview: From a well-known outdoors and nature writer comes a narrative that explores a lifelong obsession with competitive birding.
What drives a man to travel to sixty countries and spend a fortune to count birds? And what if that man is your father?
Richard Koeppel’s obsession began at the age of eleven, in Queens, New York, when he first spotted a Brown Thrasher and promptly jotted the sighting in a notebook. Several decades, one failed marriage, and two sons later, he added an astonishing 517 birds to that list on a single trip to Kenya. Soon after, he ended the last romantic relationship he would ever have, scaled down his medical practice, and decided to see every bird on earth, becoming a "Big Lister," a member of a subculture of competitive bird watchers worldwide, all pursuing the same goal. Over twenty five years, he collected more than 7,000 species (of a known 9,600), becoming one of about ten people ever to do so.
