The Bird Way is about how birds act, play, talk, and think, among other topics. Jennifer Ackerman's writing catches and holds your attention as she blends scientific research with personal anecdotes.

"This book is about the range of surprising and sometimes alarming behaviors that birds perform daily, activities that firmly, sometimes gleefully, reverse conventional notions about what is 'normal' in birds and what we thought they were capable of." --excerpt from the Introduction page 3
