Short listed for the Green Earth book award In early April, as Owen and his sister search the hickories, oaks, and dogwoods for returning birds, a huge group of birds leaves the misty mountain slopes of the Yucatan peninsula for the 600-mile flight across the Gulf of Mexico to their summer nesting grounds. One of them is a Cerulean warbler. He will lose more than half his body weight even if the journey goes well. Aloft over the vast ocean, the birds encourage each other with squeaky chirps that say, “We are still alive. We can do this.” Owen’s family watches televised reports of a great storm over the Gulf of Mexico, fearing what it may mean for migrating songbirds. In alternating spreads, we wait and hope with Owen, then struggle through the storm with the warbler. This moving story with its hopeful ending appeals to us to preserve the things we love. The backmatter includes a North American bird migration map, birding information for kids, and guidance for how native plantings can transform yards into bird and wildlife habitat.

Stephen is successful, incredibly wealthy, and happily married with two amazing kids. Yet, he is unsatisfied. As time ticks on, Stephen finds the trappings and luxuries of his life—the consumerism, the waste, and the ego—distasteful. He dreads days at the office and meetings meant to finalize agreements. Today, he sits in his office, reminiscing, when he is visited by a small warbler. How happy the bird seems! He stays for a moment, letting Stephen approach him, before he flies off again. With a start, Stephen realizes that today is the twentieth anniversary of his Grandpa Al’s death. He had spent some of the best times of his life with his grandparents Al and Martha. Farmers living off the land in rural Ontario, they didn’t have much, but they had a roof over their heads, delicious homecooked meals in their bellies, meaning in their lives, and a lot of love to spare. His grandparents had seemed satisfied, fulfilled. Was that the gift of a simple, honest life? Stephen is determined to make a change. Thankfully he will be spending the Victoria Day long weekend with his Grandma Martha, still at the farm. His rock, she will surely be able to help him weather this storm, rediscover his roots, and find a little more meaning. An exploration of the generational gap and family traditions, The Warbler’s Call announces the eve of transformation.

If we could see it as a whole, if they all arrived in a single flock, say, we would be truly amazed: sixteen million birds. Swallows, martins, swifts, warblers, wagtails, wheatears, cuckoos, chats, nightingales, nightjars, thrushes, pipits and flycatchers pouring into Britain from sub-Saharan Africa. It is one of the enduring wonders of the natural world. Each bird faces the most daunting of journeys -navigating epic distances, dependent on bodily fuel reserves. Yet none can refuse. Since pterodactyls flew, twice-yearly odysseys have been the lot of migrant birds. For us, for millennia, the Great Arrival has been celebrated. From The Song of Solomon, through Keats' Ode To a Nightingale, to our thrill at hearing the first cuckoo call each year, the spring-bringers are timeless heralds of shared seasonal joy. Yet, migrant birds are finding it increasingly hard to make the perilous journeys across the African desert. Say Goodbye to the Cuckoo is a moving call to arms by an impassioned expert: get outside, teach your children about these birds, don't let them disappear from our shores and hearts.
