Bird Alert

By Peggy Thomas

What seems freer than a bird? Yet, daily, habitats are destroyed, birds are killed by pollution and pesticides, killed by cars or cats. Whole species are pushed toward extinction. Birds aren't just pretty. As they disappear, people are discovering how important to plants birds are and how many insects they control. In Bird Alert you'll learn about people committed to saving birds -- from California condors to Hawaiian amakihis -- and how you can get involved in your own neighborhood. Book jacket.
