Birds of the Rockies
Leander Sylvester Keyser
A broad-tailed hummingbird trills through thin mountain air at ten thousand feet, and Keyser is there to greet it. His Rockies wander from arid plain up to bald peaks and green vales, cataloging the birds of each zone along the way. Enthusiastic, altitude-drunk nature writing. For anyone who has hiked a switchback and wondered what was singing above the pines.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
