I picked this up based solely the title bc I love birds and was intrigued by hearing from Indigenous perspectives, but I didn’t anticipate this is a book by a white man who interviewed his two Indigenous friends. That’s not a bad premise but it is not what I wanted. I only made it through the intro and the entire premise was also about how important recording verbatim interviews are, and I was like “…..ok.” Perhaps I’d return to this in the future, but not for now.
