They aren't fiction, but recently I've been enjoying two entertaining and
insightful books about birds:

Rare Encounters with Ordinary Birds
--Notes from a Northwest Year by Lyanda Lynn Haupt

and

The Parrot Who Owns Me

Subject: FICTION books on birds/birding

HI ALL:
With the talk recently (mostly on BIRDCHAT) of the movie/book RARE BIRDS,
I was wondering if there are any other bird/birding works of FICTION that
birders like? The ones I've come across seem to have missed the mark in
getting birds or birding correctly portrayed. Any comments?
