Join Seabrook Island Birders as we read "A World on the Wing" by Scott Weidensaul. Scott is a renowned bird migration expert, and author of more than two dozen books on natural history. These include New York Times bestseller "A World on the Wing," and Pulitzer Prize finalist "Living on the Wind." He's a contributing editor for Audubon and is a Fellow of the American Ornithological Society. An active field researcher, his studies of migration have taken him all around the world.

Our island-wide book reading culminates in an author led Zoom on Sunday, January 22, 2023. SIB members can attend a book club style reception at the Oystercatcher Community Center at 4:00 pm, then view Scott's Zoom program at 5:00 pm. SIB members and guests can also view the program starting at 4:45 pm on Zoom from the comfort of their homes.

"I'm not a birder, but Weidensaul persuades me that I could be, and that a greater appreciation of the movement and behaviour of migratory birds might bring me into closer contact with what it means to be a living thing on Earth." - Ashish Ghadiali, The Guardian

Read Scott's book: "A World on the Wing," available at Indigo Books, Johns Island Library, Amazon.com, etc.
