Turning to Birds: The Power and Beauty of Noticing

Lili Taylor is an actor I’ve long been in awe of, and now I know why her work has always been soulful and painfully honest. Turning to Birds is a treasure map to Lili’s inner life and a scripture in how to be truly mindful. * Griffin Dunne, actor, director, and author of The Friday Afternoon Club * What can an actor—even a consummate one like Lili Taylor—tell us about birding? Plenty, as she brings her profession’s keen observation skills to Turning to Birds, exploring what our feathered marvels can mean to us people. You couldn’t ask for a more personal, accessible approach to the pastime we all love (or will, by the end of this book). * Christian Cooper, author of Better Living Through Birding * If you are wondering what this hobby called "birding" is, why so many people are attracted to it, or how one becomes a birder, wonder no more! In Turning to Birds, Lili Taylor answers these questions with flair, insight, and wisdom. * Douglas Tallamy, author of Nature’s Best Hope *
