Since 1972 Mark Cocker has been a member of a community of obsessional people, almost all male, who sacrifice most of their spare time, a good deal of money, sometimes their chances of a partner or family, even occasionally their lives, to watch birds.

Birders is the story of this community, of its characters, its rules, its equipment and its adventures - many of which are hilariously funny, Birders is also a work of love - the story of what birds can do to the human heart.

Arvustused

At last! An up to date examination of what makes birders tick. And about time too! Wonderfully written * Bill Oddie * A natural history version of Fever Pitch... Reading it may even make you want to try out this strangely addictive past time for yourself * Guardian * Intensely readable, very funny and highly enlightening * New Scientist * With a mixture of well-chosen anecdotes and self-deprecating humour, Cocker succeeds in making event he most hardened cynic appreciate his passion. Birders is a stylish work in a long tradition of fine writing on the subject * Guardian * The best account yet of the "tribe" and its wonderful, unworldly passions * The Times *
