Donald R. Griffin, author of Animal Minds
"This book is magnificently fascinating for two reasons. First, it tells us so much, and so entertainingly, about what Heinrich and his colleagues have learned about ravens. And second, it takes us along as his companions in field studies and thoughtful planning of scientific investigations. For a long time the mental experiences of animals were forbidden territory for scientists, but Heinrich's critically cautious observations, experiments and ideas have opened our eyes and our minds to the richness of ravens' behavior."

Ravensong by Catherine Feher Elston, illustrated by Lawrence Ormsby
Birds of myth, mystery, intelligence, and curiosity, ravens and crows have fascinated humans for untold centuries.

Drawing upon the most recent ornithological research and extensive personal interviews with Pacific Northwest and other American Indian people, the author presents a well-rounded consideration of two of America's most ubiquitous avian species.
