   Words In Our Beak, VOLUME THREE brings to a close the stories told by Cam, a feisty and beautiful female cardinal living year–round in a New York City urban garden.   In this volume, Cam describes two methods for winterizing an urban garden as well as her interactions with some new diners at TLLG’s many birdfeeders. She also clues the reader into why birds seem to “hide” in their surroundings.   Visit one last time with Cam as she chronicles the habits of her avian community, what it is like to spend time in this special urban garden, and why — for all the hazards to bird life and garden greenery — New York City is still the place to live.

WORDS IN OUR BEAK Volume Two picks up Cam's story from where Volume One left off. Here, Cam ventures to the sea shore for a vacation with her children, only to discover upon their return that her "home" is in a state of chaos! Cam then relates how a series of major disruptions to the garden uproot both the perennials living there and the birds to whom it offers shelter. Written for children and adults who are curious about birds and want to learn about them from a unique perspective, the WORDS IN OUR BEAK book series includes rich, colorful images of Cam and her friends surrounded by lush flora and fauna.
