Kingbird Highway

Kenn Kaufman left high school before he finished to make his own way in the world by exploring nature and the world via hitchhiking. He sets out to break a record for the most birds seen in the US in a year, and he ends up realizing that what he really wants to do is study birds.

Kingbird Highway is Kaufman's story of his Big Year, his adventures on the road, and his encounters with birds, many of them for the first time.
