Adam Nicolson, Books, The Seabird's Cry, The story of seabirds - the pattern of their lives, their habitats, the threats they face and the passions they inspire from one of our greatest nature writers.We have lived with seabirds for at least 300,000 years. From the beginning, they have been both deeply distant and yet strangely connected to us, an unknown ocean a mirror of ourselves. As with all nature, we use them and love them, nurture them and destroy them, revere them and make toys and hats and dinner out of them.Exploring the history, islands and neighbouring communities of these magnificent creatures, Adam Nicolson evokes the poetry and landscapes of their lives. In a beautiful evocation of the coastal world that we both abuse and treasure, The Seabird's Cry tells the long story of seabirds as a barometer of human life on earth.

EN NWISBN: 9780008165697 bzw. 0008165696, in Englisch, William Collins; HarperCollins, Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika, neu.
The full story of seabirds from one of the greatest nature writers. The book looks at the pattern of their lives, their habitats, the threats they face and the passions they inspire - beautifully illustrated by artist Kate Boxer. `I was entranced... It is a work that takes wing in the mind' ROBERT MACFARLANE Seabirds have always entranced the human imagination and Adam Nicolson has been in love with them all his life: for their mastery of wind and ocean, their aerial beauty and the unmatched wildness of the coasts and islands where every summer they return to breed. Over the last couple of decades, modern science has begun to understand them: their epic voyages, their astonishing abilities to navigate for tens of thousands of miles on a featureless sea, their ability to smell their way towards fish and home. Only the poets in the past would have thought of seabirds as creatures riding the ripples and currents of the planet, but that is what the scientists are seeing now too. In ten chapters, each dedicated to a different bird, and each beautifully illustrated by Kate Boxer, The Seabird's Cry travels the ocean paths along with them, looking at the way their bodies work, the sense of their own individuality, the strategies and tactics needed to survive and thrive in the most demanding environment on earth. At the heart of the book are the Shiant Isles, a cluster of Hebridean islands in the Minch but Nicolson has pursued the birds much further - across the Atlantic, up the west coast of Ireland, to St Kilda, Orkney, Shetland, the Faeroes, Iceland and Norway; to the eastern seaboard of Maine and to Newfoundland, to the Falklands, South Georgia, the Canaries and the Azores - reaching out across the widths of the world ocean which is the seabirds' home. But a global tragedy is unfolding. Even as we are coming to understand them, the number of seabirds is in freefall, droppin ...
