Oddie's Gripping Yarns: Tales of Birds & Birding
Author: Bill Oddie
Paperback
Published by Christopher
Helm (Publishers) Ltd on May 1, 2000

From the back
cover: “Here are over 60 of Bill Oddie’s tales of the ups, downs, highs, lows and thrills and spills of birding,
from nefarious childhood ‘egging’ to fully fledged twitching – and much more besides.
Most of the stories are taken
from the last five years’ of Bill’s regular monthly column in Birdwatch magazine, and cover such diverse
subjects as bird racing in Hong
Kong to a birder’s dietary requirements. Often ‘cut to
fit’ the available space in Birdwatch, the stories now appear in their original form, and are complemented by
Bill’s own drawings.”
