Description

Virtue is a white robe only women get to wear…

Equipped with her Sibley Guide, explorer hat and trusty binoculars, Amanda Byrd tracks the most elusive winged species, solving a few problems along the way.

Everything in this bird tour has gone awry: Lady Byrd wakes up too late, because the tour guide forgot to arrange the morning calls. In a foul mood, she has to get to the site herself. Then, her path crosses that of a pregnant birder in the throes of an abusive relationship, and cornered into a hard choice only women faced.

What can an expert birder do to lift this fog of sadness?

A spirited and hopeful story with the energetic Lady Byrd, written by Michèle Laframboise, multi-award winner author and amateur ornithologist.
