In the book “Birds, Art, Life: A Year of Observation,” author Kyo McLeir tells the story of her ornithological journey through the city, where she reflects on creativity and searching for the meaning of life. In a difficult situation, she discovers the world of watching birds, exploring our relationship with nature. Birds become for her an external push toward an inner journey—raising questions about how we affect our surroundings and how we can treat the urban spaces where we live with care.
