Nature : The Peregrine
The Peregrine
by J. A. Baker (b. 1926) English
Introduction by Robert Macfarlane
With no prior knowledge of birds, the author is seized with an unexplained longing to track the peregrine falcons that hunt in the river valley behind his home. As winter approaches, he resolves to shun the world of men in fierce pursuit of the falcon's inner life. Veering swiftly from the mundane to the miraculous, Baker's diary of a long winter in the wild is a triumph of pure and immediate description.
