520    "100 Flying Birds: Photographing the Mechanics of Flight 
       offers a vivid and varied glimpse into the world of birds.
       A white-tailed eagle plummeting through a Japanese sky, a 
       brown pelican striking a silhouette against an Ecuadorian 
       sunset, an Atlantic puffin carrying its fish dinner above 
       the Scottish coast, or a keel-billed toucan gliding 
       through a Costa Rican jungle canopy; readers will marvel 
       at the splendour of birds in flight while learning the 
       techniques to capture these gravity-defying moments from a
       world-class nature photographer. For each picture, author 
       and photographer Peter Cavanagh shares his most evocative 
       thoughts: the challenges of the shoot, the beauty of the 
       location, and the curiosities of the species. Bird people 
       will enjoy the bird photographs and facts, travelers will 
       gobble up the tales of distant parts, and photographers 
       will absorb the technical details. For instance, readers 
       might be surprised to see that a very slow shutter speed 
       can freeze the motion of hummingbird wings. Peter Cavanagh
       has collected 100 beautiful photos spanning a wide range 
       of species. The subjects of each of the 11 chapters are: 
       Eagles; Hummingbirds; Gulls and Terns; Small Waterbirds; 
       Large Waterbirds; Ducks, Geese and Swans; Raptors; Condors
       and Corvids; Cranes; Songbirds"--Publisher's description.
