In 1974, the Massachusetts Audubon Society and the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife launched a five-year survey to map the distribution of all the birds that breed in the Commonwealth - the first such comprehensive effort in North America.

The book includes distribution maps showing possible, probable, and confirmed breeding areas for 198 Massachusetts nesting species on a grid of 989 tensquare-mile blocks.

Fiction. I love this little book, this dual portrait of unlikely companions, one of whom is paid to keep the other company and required to re-establish himself daily, as her memory is damaged.
