I second Jeff's recommendations, among other things Heinrich is a very good
writer as well as an old-fashioned scientist (bit of naturalist --
individuals of other species have individual identities/personalities).
"One Wild Bird at a Time" is a series of stories/reports from that
perspective. all of his other books should be on such a list too, his two
Raven books are must reads for anyone who spends time in the high country
here.
