ABLE, KENNETH P. Gatherings of Angels: Migrating Birds and Their Ecology.
Ithaca: Comstock Publishing, 1999. Octavo, dustwrapper, 193 pp, colour photographs, maps, other illustrations. The book features 24 pages of stunning colour photographs with additional black and white photographs throughout. Two chapters of background information on migration precede chapters that focus on different species or groups of birds and the localities essential to their survival - from the spring flights of songbirds across the Gulf of Mexico to the massing of Sandhill Cranes on the Platte River. The authors discuss the timing of migrant travel, the routes followed, and the concentration of birds in stopover sites, locations that must be preserved if the birds are to have secure resting spots.
