Book excerpt: "There is a valley, not far from here that needs you.” The voice painted a picture for Shinaka. “It is a green place, where creatures live in peace and harmony. I want very much for it to remain that way. The valley needs a keeper, one who will protect it and its inhabitants. I want you, Shinaka, to be the keeper and protector of the green valley. But you must vow to do it always and forever." Smiling Fawn asks her grandfather, Brave Wolf, to tell once more her favorite story, “The Hummingbird and the Hawk.” As a tribal elder, Brave Wolf shares with her the stories of their people to teach Smiling Fawn about the history of her family and her tribe. The people of the Armaha tribe have a rich tradition of legends handed down from generation to generation. The legends---filled with mystery, wonder, and adventure---help Smiling Fawn understand the beliefs her people guard and treasure. In these stories, she hears of Ahote, the Restless One, and of Ama and Dyami, and the struggles of the little humming bird Nuluk to find a new home for his flock. The important lessons revealed by the stories influence and shape Smiling Fawn's life as she blossoms from a young girl of seven---whom her grandfather calls "little one"---to a young woman of sixteen and learns what it means to be a respected member of the Armaha.

Download or read book The Hawk s Way written by Sy Montgomery and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A splendid and luminous celebration of one of nature’s most perfect and mysterious creatures—the hawk—from the New York Times bestselling author of the “astoundingly beautiful” (NPR) The Soul of an Octopus. When Sy Montgomery went to spend a day at falconer Nancy Cowan’s farm, home to a dozen magnificent birds of prey, it was the start of a deep love affair. Nancy allowed her to work with Jazz, a feisty, four-year-old, female Harris’s hawk with a wingspan of more than four feet. Not a pet, Jazz was a fierce predator with talons that could pierce skin and bone and yet, she was willing to work with a human to hunt. From the first moment Jazz swept down from a tree and landed on Sy’s leather gloved fist, Sy fell under the hawk’s magnetic spell. Over the next few years, Sy spent more time with these magnificent creatures, getting to know their extraordinary abilities and instincts. They are deeply emotional animals, quick to show anger and frustration, and can hold a grudge for years. But they are also loyal and intensely aware of their surroundings. In this mesmerizing account, featuring sixteen pages of gorgeous color photographs, Sy passionately and vividly reveals the wonderous world of hawks and what they can teach us about nature, life, and love.

Book excerpt: There's a hawk in the city! New York City is known for its sky-scrapers, subways, and hustle and bustle -- not for its wildlife.

The hawk soon draws many admirers. They name him Pale Male and watch as he builds his nest, finds a mate, and teaches his little hawk babies to fly. Based on the true story of Pale Male, City Hawk brings New York City's favorite hawk to life in a story of family, perseverance, and big-city living.
Download or read book Hummingbird Hawk moth written by Tanya Turner and published by . This book was released on 2016-12-07 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a typical insect and a species of moth, the Hummingbird Hawk-Moth is quite small - it only measures an inch. Being always compared with butterflies, moths are usually smaller (and less colorful and less exciting than butterflies). The main similarity between a Hummingbird and a Hummingbird Hawk-Moth is their wing movement - which is extremely fast. Hummingbird Hawk-Moths have long hairs - hair strands that can be mistaken as feathers because of the way they look. Again, their covering of hair makes them seem like they are covered with feathers - like birds (and in this particular case, like Hummingbirds). The Hummingbird Hawk-Moths even seem to have tails - but again, these are just long strands of hair. Excited to learn more about the Hummingbird Hawk -Moth? Get a copy of this book and discover more fascinating information about this animal.
