A peregrine falcon in Ras al Khaimah, a back swan in New Zealand, an ostrich, a crow and a few other birds share with us their fascinating tales of adventure. From their evolution to their possible extinction, they trace their past, describe their present and dream of their future. Their special relationship with homo sapiens forms the core of each tale.Each of the 9 short stories in this book is narrated by a different bird and the message of conservation forms a common thread. The earth is their home too and humans are their co-tenants, yet the march of modernity threatens the survival of one and all. As these humble creatures tell their stories, they cry out to us to stop and think for a moment....Pages of Sheikh's Last Stoop & Other Avian Tales :
