Birds Through Irish EyesAnthony McGeehan with Julian WyllieWatching birds is a growing pastime for many people. But howmuch do we really know about them? A lifetime of first-handstudy and an eye for evocative description qualify AnthonyMcGeehan to be a knowledgeable guide. BIRDS Through IrishEyes presents the lives of the birds that share our domain. Eachhas a story and many perform modest miracles. Skeins of BrentGeese forsake Irish estuaries and travel to breed within tendegrees of the North Pole in Arctic Canada. Kestrels hover alongroadsides, using ultraviolet vision to detect mice scurryingthrough vegetation. Incontestably, birds are clever. However, theybear an increasingly heavy load. Across modern Ireland thecountryside has been dominated by a rapidly expanding andhighly mechanised human population. We have become thegatekeepers of nature. Progress should not inevitably scar anddiminish the environment, nor its wild inhabitants. Lavishlyillustrated and engrossingly narrated, this book is the birds’moment and, for some, perhaps salvation.978-1848891623 • Natural History/Irish Interest • HB 336 pp • 290 x 249 mm • €39.99/£35.00 • September • Full colour
