This book is a collection of essays that are almost always about nature, frequently about birds, with a few miscellaneous topics thrown in. Some I enjoyed more than others because of the subject matters, but all of them are short (between 2-12 pages) so even if there is one that you don't like it is over quickly.

Vesper Flights by Helen Macdonald is a collection of about 40 essays - some previously published and some new - on a wide variety of topics. As with H is for Hawk, the writing is beautiful. My review of this book has unfortunately been impacted by the fact that the version I received is one contiguous block of text. Although the finished book is comprised of a set of essays, the version I received has no divisions or other marking between the essays. I am disappointed.
