Summary
Reflections on a Golden-winged Warbler is a collection of Chickering's best essays, rewritten for this volume. In reading them you will learn what the real first bird of spring is; the three ways that birders are introduced to the sport; the power of yellow on a Yellow-breasted Chat or a Prothonotary Warbler to raise our senses to a higher level; three types of close encounters with birds; and why the woodcock didn't cross the road (it has to do with beach weasels). Chickering's essays bring to life our own memories of our best moments in the field, by describing his favorite moments in his characteristic, magical prose
