"Michigan may be known for cars and college football, but Bob Tarte’s joyful memoir proves the state also should be celebrated for its wild birds – and the terrific community of people who seek, watch, and protect them."
Mark Obmascik
Author of The Big Year
"Feather Brained is laugh-out-loud hilarious, jam-packed with surprises, unexpected adventures, revelatory truths and jaw-dropping beauty. But most of all, this is a love story – between the self-effacing author and his free-spirited wife, Linda, and between the two of them and the feathered creatures they encounter on their unlikely travels as well as in every corner of their house and yard. Even if you don't own a bird cage or binoculars, this book will make you fall in love with birds, too."
Sy Montgomery
Author of Birdology and The Soul of an Octopus
"The learning curve for new birders can seem impossible. But once you get started, birding tempts your curiosity and draws you into its own world. Feather Brained is Bob Tarte’s encounter with the entirely new universe of birding, and his entertaining experiences and laughable humor make this book an easy, engrossing read."
Greg Miller
Nationally-known real life birder portrayed by Jack Black in the movie The Big Year
