EN AQUEST LLIBRE ES PLASMEN ELS DARRERS CONEIXEMENTS SOBRE COM VIUEN ELS OCELLS, COM ES COMUNIQUEN, BROSTEGEN, CORTEGEN, REPRODUEIXEN, SOBREVIUEN, FET QUE HA CAPGIRAT LES VISIONS TRADICIONALS. Alguns dels comportaments extraordinaris dels ocells son enigmes quesembla que ampliin els limits de l'ocellitat: una mare ocell que mataels seus pollets, i una altra que desinteressadament te cura dels jovesd'altres ocells com si fossin seus. Ocells joves que s'aboquen a alimentarels seus germans, i d'altres tan competitius que apunyalen els companysde niu fins a matar-los. Ocells que creen precioses obres d'art, i ocellsque gratuitament destrueixen les creacions d'altres ocells. Ocells, comla gralla d'ales blanques, que tenen les seves contradiccions: un ocellassassi que empala la presa en punxes o en forques de les branques, peroque canta tan bellament que els compositors han creat peces senceresal voltant del seu cant; un altre amb una reputacio de solemnitat que esfortament addicte al joc, i un altre que col·labora amb una especie -elshumans- pero en parasita una altra de manera macabra. Ocells que fanregals i ocells que roben, que ballen i que tamborinegen, que pinten lesseves creacions o que es pinten ells mateixos. A partir d'observacions personals, els darrers avenços cientifics i elsviatges arreu del mon relacionats amb l'ornitologia, Jennifer Ackermandemostra clarament que no hi ha un unic taranna d'ocell, sino mes aviatun ventall vertiginos d'especies amb diferents aparences i estils de vida.Com va dir en una ocasio el bioleg E. O. Wilson, quan has vist un ocell, no els has vist tots. TRADUCCIO D'EDUARD CASTANYO * Ackerman ha rebut el National Endowment for the Arts Literature Fellowship in Non-Fiction, una Bunting Fellowship, i una beca Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.

Un libro que explora la sorprendente individualidad que caracteriza a los pájaros, porque cada ave es tan distinta como lo somos los humanos.Si en El ingenio de los pájaros Ackerman reveló la inteligencia y la habilidad social de las aves, en este nuevo libro nos demuestra que los pajaros no tienen una sola manera de ser, sino que existe una asombrosa variedad de conductas incluso dentro de una misma especie. Centrandose en la actividad diaria de las aves, la autora nos muestra el rico repertorio de comportamientos inusuales y extremos, que proporciona un contraste con lo que los pajaros hacen habitualmente y, por tanto, derriba los intentos de explicar la diversidad ornitologica bajo un solo paraguas.
