In his riveting book (published in October 2017), Brunner explores some fascinating stories of people who devoted their lives to birds. He provides a unique perspective on why we are attracted to birds and how we encounter and describe them, and yields insights into the long and convoluted history of a passion. Along the way, Bernd Brunner touches upon the history of ornithology. In his presentation, accompanied by vintage artwork, he will focus on some not-so-well-known bird lovers and provide vivid proof that people who love birds, whether they are amateurs or professionals, are as captivating and varied as the birds that give flight to their dreams.
