In 1998, Chris Dunford flew from California to Winnipeg. He then took the train north to Churchill and Hudson's Bay. He spent a week adding new sightings to his "life list" of birds. During the course of that week, he encountered a wide array of birds from Canada's North and discovered that he was coming to terms with a whole series of much deeper questions about his place inthe created world and his relationship to God. This is a unique book about birding that this as much about spirituality as it is about the fanatical interest that some people have in birds.

This review is from: Life List: A Birder's Spiritual Awakening (Paperback)
Dunford speaks to every birder, from novice to life-lister in this book. Engaging, spiritually enlightening, with hints of science, this is a great read. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys the creatures of this earth, or who ask those great cosmic questions about how we're all related.

This review is from: Life List: A Birder's Spiritual Awakening (Paperback)
The book Life List by Chris Dunford was a window into the world of a birder. I loved the description of his journey north into Canada to see the birds there and to, hopefully, add to his Life List of birds that he has seen and heard. I liked the descriptions of the serenity and solitude that can be found there. As a novice birder, I enjoyed the first-hand description of how a bird is recognized even if you cannot see it and only hear it. Also, the network of other birder's that exists out there was a surprise. But some of the most interesting parts of the book were the personal stories about his family life.
