Hi Tweeters,

Since we are housebound, I thought it might be nice to inform each other
what bird books we are currently reading. I'm about halfway through "The
Search for the Pink Headed Duck" by Rory Nugent, in which the author
describes his adventures in India searching for this species which hadn't
been been sighted for several decades and was possibly extinct. It's
actually more about his adventures than birds, but is still a fun read. It
was originally published back in 1991 but was reissued in 2011
(self-published, I believe).

I'll work on a list of bird books to share that came out last year and thus
far this year that I've acquired (mostly unread at this point) some time in
the coming week. I find myself with less than 2 weeks to convert three
courses into an online format (I teach Anthropology at a community college)
and then master presenting them, so am going a bit batty.

Good reading!
