Description
Birding Without Borders: A Year in Search of the World's Birds. In 2015, Noah Strycker set out to achieve an extraordinary goal: spotting half the world's bird species in one year. This ambitious quest took him to 41 countries across seven continents, where he encountered a diverse cast of fellow birders and experienced the full range of human endeavour. From the humid jungles of Madagascar to the war-torn landscapes of Central Africa, Strycker's journey was marked by moments of beauty, danger, and discovery. Along the way, he learned valuable lessons about perseverance, adaptability, and the importance of conservation. This book is a celebration of birdwatching and a testament to the power of human curiosity and determination.
