Author: Roshan Raj Mehta

ISBN:
Category : Young Adult Fiction

Pages : 109
Book Description
‘Lost chirp of the morning sparrow’ is the second book from ‘The Flyborn Series’. The story revolves around a cursed butterfly named ‘Romi Flyborn’ who was able to find out the purpose of his life which was to fly. Somehow, as his wings flapped through the winds, Destiny passed a bigger question to him. What’s the purpose of flying if you can’t go any further? A group of birds living on the enchanted island of ‘Birdera’ behind the curved mountains and the two rivers have set sail in search of their legendary leader who was still a myth. While amidst the dense forest, Romi prepares to bring Angela back home even if he has to search the skies. Far away in the forest of ‘Densdoom’, a pack of wolves are running fast on the orders of an evil that lives inside the cave, heavily guarded by flying foxes. Romi’s journey is about to take a turn for he is still not aware of what lies beyond the safe green home and his life is about to get tested for how far he can fly. It’s only when you step out and flap your wings, you realize the speed of the wind and the eye of the hurricane waiting for you in the storm. This is the story of a small butterfly wanting to fly high in a big world and his courage is about to encounter a world that too awaits him.

The Sparrows
Author: Denis Summers-Smith
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1408138255
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 351
Book Description
While Denis Summers-Smith's monograph The Sparrows presented his knowledge of sparrow biology, this volume tells the other, human, side of the tale. Denis Summers-Smith first took up the study of the House Sparrow in 1947, thinking that the difficulties of travel in post-war Britain would best suit the study of a species always close at hand. The humble House Sparrow, common everywhere, was surprisingly poorly researched and his work soon provided interesting insights into this successful and adaptable little bird. As new opportunities to travel opened up, his interest blossomed to take in the genus Passer as a whole. His travels would ultimately lead to his study of all but one of the group, found only in deepest Turkestan, and to the publication of his authoritative monograph on sparrows in 1988. His wry descriptions of the tribulations and unexpected pleasures of a traveller on four continents, from the Himalayas and Thailand to Africa and the Americas (with a good few islands in between), are interspersed with observations and speculations on the biology of sparrows in a wide variety of habitats. Everywhere local officials and bird watchers warmed to the eccentric Scot in pursuit of the little birds that nobody notices but which so often make their homes beside us. The author's own photographs and delightful cartoons by Euan Dunn further paint the picture of this lifelong search.
