Odd Bird
New Paperback
Postscript summary
Ornithologist Simon has been unlucky in love and relies on his knowledge of the mating habits of birds, and the dubious advice of an old friend, in a bid to navigate the confusing world of dating.
Product information
Full publisher description
Simon Selwood is an academic expert on the mating behaviour of birds, but hopeless at finding human love. Then he meets Kim, and at last something is more important to him than ornithology.
Kim doesn't give a hoot about birds. And at first she isn't very interested in Simon either. Relying on what he has gleaned from observing the opportunistic pied flycatcher and other species, plus the unorthodox advice of old friend Phil, Simon sets out on a mission to discover love for himself.
But will he make the right choice?
Odd Bird takes a light-hearted look at the battle of the sexes, drawing on the surprising parallels between the courtship behaviours of humans and birds.
