About this listen

Paul, my brother, still questions whether I was born or if, in fact, I was hatched.

Eric Dempsey is mad about birds. In fact, they have changed his whole life. Having once been gainfully employed by a semi-state company in a secure, pensionable job, he gave it all up to dedicate his life to bird-watching.

In this remarkable memoir, Eric tells us of his love of nature from his earliest days and how it has influenced him throughout his life, inspiring many adventures. In doing so, he provides a snapshot of growing up in Dublin in the ’60s and ’70s. Peppered with stories that are both hilarious and poignant, such as instructing his parents not to die in autumn (it’s the best time for bird-watching) and going on safari to fulfil the dream of a friend who had passed away, this audiobook will make you laugh, cry and everything in between.
