Description: A different view of the demise of the passenger pigeon, which argues that the bird's way of life also doomed it.
"Those of us who are city dwellers so often forget that we share our space with a host of creatures that can enrich and enliven our lives if we simply take the time to notice and enjoy them. Jerry noticed and enjoyed every creature—from the caterpillar to the butterfly, the sparrow to the falcon, the wild onion to the orchid—and helped us see and appreciate them as well. This book, from an extraordinary man, is an extraordinary gift to all of us who inhabit Chicago wilderness and other urban ecosystems."—Bruce Boyd, The Nature Conservancy
