While this is not dry and purely factual in the way an encyclopedia is, I personally found it to be even better. It's a warm, pleasant read covering a myriad of topics related to bird observation - notable people from its history, observation strategies, habitat info, biological info, and -as promised in the title - a bit of lore. What a joy!

First non-fiction book of the year and enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. Dry humor and a wealth of information on birds. Will return to it.

Had quite a bit of bird facts that were interesting! Easy to pick up and read in small bursts. Look forward to checking out the other ones. Love the cover.
