Summary:

From the internationally acclaimed author of H IS FOR HAWK comes VESPER FLIGHTS, a collection of Helen Macdonald's best loved pieces along with new essays, ranging from accounts of swan upping on the Thames to watching tens of thousands of cranes in Hungary to seeking the last golden orioles in Suffolk's poplar forests.
