Small-headed Flycatcher. Seen Yesterday. He Didn't Leave His Name.: and other stories
This book brings together thirty-two vintage essays that Dunne originally wrote for publications such as American Birds, and Wild Bird News. Encounters with birds rare and common is their shared theme, through which Dunne weaves stories of his family and friends, reflections on the cycles of nature, and portraits of unforgettable birders whose paths have crossed his, ranging from Roger Tory Peterson to a life-battered friend who finds solace in birding.

Praise for this book
Mr. Dunne . . . is one of the country's most-respected birders, a self-taught authority whose exuberant, almost-poetic approach to the pastime has won him many followers among the growing legions of birders.-- "Wall Street Journal"
