Bill Oddie's Gripping Yarns

Bill Oddie

Here are over 60 of Bill Oddie's tales of the ups, downs, highs, lows, and thrills and spills of birding, from nefarious childhood 'egging' to fully-fledged twitching - and much more besides.

Most of the stories are taken from the last five years of Bill's regular monthly column in Birdwatch magazine, and cover such diverse subjects as bird racing in Hong Kong and a birder's dietary requirements. Often 'cut to fit' the available space in Birdwatch, the stories now appear in their original form, and are complemented by Bill's own drawings. 208 pages.
