What's it about anyway? I always see this bird book in bookstores and never really pay attention to it other than going "huh, there's that bird book".

It's a bird watchers journal.
Literally.
He looks for Falcons. He finds them. He describes the weather, the surroundings, the prey and the hunt. Then he goes home and does the same thing the next day.
The prose is exceptional though.
And it's strange how intensely he identifies with the peregrines. It is repetitive but I'm glad I read it.

John Hawk(es) is my favorite author. Has anyone read this book? I eventually want to get it along with the rest of his stuff but this one seems hard to find offline.
Am I the only non-british person that found this difficult to read because of the detailed images it paints of British landscapes and bird? I simply couldn't grasp it in my mind.
i read it in the spring on year
i sat on a lawn chair in the middle of the day so i could get the closest i could to actually being undisturbed in an english pasture
it was a meaningful experience

Oh wait, they're both in "Lunar Landscapes". I guess that's why this isn't printed anymore. Though this being Hawkes, I'm not sure if Lunar Landscapes is in print either.

You can google these things nowdays anon
I've seen Werner Herzog recommend it as a single book you have to read if you want to make films. Him being one of my favorite directors, I just have to do it, even if it doesn't make sense. Yeah, I only know that it's about one man who watches some falcons for so long that he starts to experience metamorphosis in his inner self, or something like that.

My mind just jumped to a really silly world where Sue Grafton wrote a murder mystery where the hawk did it.
