Free Download Birds Aren’t Real: The True Story of Mass Avian Murder and the Largest Surveillance Campaign in US History (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CJW87JHX | 2024 | 3 hours and 50 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 223 MB
Author: Peter McIndoe, Connor Gaydos
Narrator: Peter McIndoe, Connor Gaydos
The true story of the greatest conspiracy in US history-and how to fight back. Have you ever seen a baby pigeon? You haven’t, have you? No one has, not in many, many years. They used to be everywhere. You couldn’t walk out of your front door in New York City in the 1930s without seeing dozens of those little guys scurrying around. Today, there are millions of grown up pigeons in New York, but not a baby pigeon to be seen. That’s because they come out of the factory as adults. This is one of the many smoking guns of the bird drone surveillance crisis. Since 1959, the Deep State has mercilessly slaughtered over 12 billion birds and replaced them with identical drones that are designed to spy on private citizens and report their every action directly to the government.

Free Download The Birds That Audubon Missed: Discovery and Desire in the American Wilderness (Audiobook)
English | ASIN: B0CQ2VC2CM | 2024 | 12 hours and 6 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 354 MB
Author: Kenn Kaufman
Narrator: Mack Sanderson
Renowned naturalist Kenn Kaufmanexamines the scientific discoveries of John James Audubon and his artistic and ornithologist peers to show how what they saw (and what they missed) reflects how we perceive and understand the natural world. Raging ambition. Towering egos. Competition under a veneer of courtesy. Heroic effort combined with plagiarism, theft, exaggeration, and fraud. This was the state of bird study in eastern North America during the early 1800s, as a handful of intrepid men raced to find the last few birds that were still unknown to science. The most famous name in the bird world was John James Audubon, who painted spectacular portraits of birds. But although his images were beautiful, creating great art was not his main goal. Instead, he aimed to illustrate (and write about) as many different species as possible, obsessed with trying to outdo his rival, Alexander Wilson. George Ord, a fan and protégé of Wilson, held a bitter grudge against Audubon for years, claiming he had faked much of his information and his scientific claims.

Free Download When Women Were Birds: Fifty-four Variations on Voice By Terry Tempest Williams
2012 | 224 Pages | ISBN: 0374288976 | EPUB | 1 MB
The beloved author of Refuge returns with a work that explodes and startles, illuminates and celebratesTerry Tempest Williams’s mother told her:"I am leaving you all my journals, but you must promise me you won’t look at them until after I’m gone."Readers of Williams’s iconic and unconventional memoir, Refuge, well remember that mother.She was one of a large Mormon clan in northern Utah who developed cancer as a result of the nuclear testing in nearby Nevada. It was a shock to Williams to discover thather mother had kept journals.But not as much of a shock as what she found when the time came to read them."They were exactly where she said they would be: three shelves of beautiful cloth-bound books . . . I opened the first journal.It was empty. I opened the second journal.It was empty.I opened the third.It too was empty . . . Shelf after shelf after shelf, all of my mother’s journals were blank." What did Williams’s mother mean by that? Infifty-four chapters that unfold like a series of yoga poses, each with its own logic and beauty, Williams creates a lyrical and caring meditation of the mystery of her mother’s journals. When Women Were Birds is a kaleidoscope that keeps turning around the question "What does it mean to have avoice?" Note: blank pages are intentional.

Free Download James Sandrock, "The Scientific Nomenclature of Birds in the Upper Midwest "
English | ISBN: 1609382250 | 2014 | 192 pages | PDF | 2 MB
The translation and explanation of genus and species names yield markers to help us identify birds in the field as well as remember distinctive traits. Having a basic understanding of the scientific and common names of birds reveals insights into their color, behavior, habitat, or geography. Knowing that Cyanocitta means "blue chatterer" and cristata means "crested, tufted" or that Anas means "a duck" and clypeata means "armed with a shield" tells you just about everything you need to identify a Blue Jay or a Northern Shoveler. In this portable reference book, James Sandrock and Jean Prior explain the science and history behind the names of some 450 birds of the Upper Midwest states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North and South Dakota, Ohio, and Wisconsin. Since many of these birds occur throughout the United States, this handbook can also be used by birders in other parts of the country.
