Roving Reporter | "Author, Author, Birder" | Article and 6 Photos by Jeanette Larson
A standing room only crowd gathered at the Aquarium at Rockport Harbor on Saturday, February 25th for a book release and signing party. People began arriving well before the 4:00 p.m. start time and books sold out quickly. Each author was seated at a signing table with pen in hand and eagerly autographed their pages in the book. While many buyers were proud family members the signing was also attended by many winter Texans, local birders, and supporters of Wings Rescue Center. Birds covered ranged from the famous whooping cranes to lesser-known birds like the indigo bunting. The book concludes with tips on how to provide first aid to birds and illustrations to help readers understand bird anatomy.
