One of the reasons I wanted to read this book is because of my love for crows and other corvids. But there is much more to Crow Planet than stories about crows: spiritualism, conservation, our environment and its changes because of man, (which includes the increasing numbers of crows that live in urban areas) and more. Though there were some good crow stories, I found that Crow Planet has taken us a step further into understanding the circle of life and our impact on it, including ecological imbalance from our interactions with the natural world. I was pleasantly surprised to be reminded of the naturalist's way, something you don't seem to hear much about anymore. Although it was not what I was expecting to read, I'm glad I did.
