In the Shadow of the Bridge: Birds of the Bay Area is a sumptuously photographed new art book chronicling the immense bird biodiversity of the region. Author Hannah Hindley and photographer Dick Evans capture the pockets of wilderness that make Bay Area cities and towns a birder’s paradise and give voice to the environmental dilemmas that imperil it.

In this author event at Buteo Books, Dick and Hannah will discuss the factors that support such diverse bird life and why the Bay Area is a remarkable place for the study of birds and a potent catalyst for their preservation and protection—accompanied by a slideshow of Dick’s gorgeous photography.

Following the presentation, Dick and Hannah will answer your questions and sign copies. All are welcome and this event is free to attend. We appreciate your RSVP to be sure we set up enough chairs!
