Die Weisheit der Raben

In this classic of observing and studying ravens, Bernd Heinrich vividly and excitingly recounts his experiences living alongside these intelligent creatures. Since childhood, he has been fascinated by this close yet unfamiliar bird species. He describes his lifelong journeys in their footsteps through the forests of Maine, his attempts to get closer to them, the experiments he conducted to explore their behavior, and not least, the myths surrounding these dark birds and their supposedly destructive or creative powers. The Wisdom of Ravens is a book that invites readers to embark on a journey of discovery: towards a spirit that has remained closed to us until now. It is masterful nature writing from one of the best nature writers of our time.
