• Foreword by Jonathan Franzen
• Original poem by Margaret Atwood

With species ranging from tiny iridescent-green hummingbirds to giant, gangly flightless rheas, the Americas feature an astonishing array of birds that rely upon the region’s tremendous diversity of habitats. That reliance may be very localized or it may reach across continents Swainson’s Thrushes travel from South America all the way to Alaska, while certain grebes spend their entire lives on a single lake. Treasured songbirds feed at northern backyard feeders yet often arrive from points far to the south.

The American Bird Conservancy (ABC) works across the Americas with a goal to have birds routinely prioritized in all land-use and policy decision-making. Bringing Back the Birds showcases these efforts, alongside the stunning photography of Owen Deutsch and eloquent essays from renowned experts in the field Peter P. Marra, Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center; researchers Kimberly and Kenn Kaufman; John W. Fitzpatrick, Cornell Lab of Ornithology; and Mike Parr, EJ Williams, and Clare Nielsen of ABC.

"This is more than just a coffee table photo book! First off, the photographs alone in this book make it worth it to buy. The birds seem to almost come alive right off each page - so colorful and vibrant. You'd think every bird posed knowing it was having a fantastic photo of it being taken. But more than a photo book, it is an amazing educational resource on bird conservation. Many renown authors and figures in the conservation world contributed to this work and it is honestly a pretty good read if you care about those things. There are some really interesting bird facts too. I love birds and animals so if you're like me, you'll enjoy having this book. It's also pretty awesome that all the royalties go towards bird conservation - there aren't many things out there you can buy where you know all your money towards the purchase is going to charity. It's a great addition to any nature photobook collection for sure."
