Description

Each year, hundreds of people set out across North America determined to set a new record in a spectacularly competitive event. Is it tennis? Golf? No, it's bird-watching, and a contest known as the Big Year. This title chronicles the 275, 000-mile odyssey of three unlikely adventurers who take their bird-watching so seriously it nearly kills them.
