Book: The Big Year

I picked this up at a cheap booksale (you know all books $5 each) with thousands to choose from. What a great read. It is a true story about 3 guys from America who are trying for a “Big Year”. They are bird watchers and are aiming to break the current record by finding the bigger number of spieces in northern America. It was a really great read as the three guys were so different to each other. The lengths they went to were amazing (and so god damn expensive). They hired helicopters, boat charters etc. Just extraordinary! I mean I know nothing about birds but it was still a great book.
