  Selecting the right bird and creating a comfortable living environment are crucial first steps in ensuring a happy and healthy life for your feathered companion. The process begins with understanding your own lifestyle and preferences, as this will help you choose a bird species that aligns with your needs. Birds vary widely in size, temperament, and care requirements. For example, small species like canaries and finches are low-maintenance and ideal for beginners, while parrots and cockatoos demand more attention and interaction due to their intelligence and social nature. 
  Once you’ve chosen your bird, setting up an appropriate home is the next essential step. A well-chosen cage serves as both a sanctuary and a playground for your bird, so it’s important to select one that suits its size and activity level. Smaller birds require less space but still benefit from a cage that allows for free movement, while larger species need ample room to stretch their wings and explore. The spacing between the bars should be appropriate for your bird’s size to ensure safety and prevent escapes. 
  Inside the cage, include essentials that will keep your bird comfortable and stimulated. Perches of varying diameters are necessary for maintaining foot health and simulating a natural environment. Food and water dishes should be easily accessible and kept clean at all times. Additionally, toys such as swings, bells, and chewable items are vital for mental stimulation and preventing boredom. Birds are intelligent and curious creatures, so rotating toys periodically will keep them engaged.

  Dr. David Sandberg, an internationally renown pediatric neurosurgeon, combines his deep scientific and medical knowledge with raw emotion and unforgettably powerful stories of courage and love. The brain is the most complicated and perplexing of our organs, and it is also the one that makes us human. When it comes to a child's brain, the hearts of those who love them become inextricably linked to that story. 
   
   
   
  In Brain and Heart, Dr. Sandberg describes the joy, heartbreak, uncertainty, and physical and emotional challenges that come with performing brain surgery on children. While most medical memoirs focus largely on the patient perspective, Dr. Sandberg allows listeners access to his private thoughts when making agonizing decisions. 
   
   
   
  A father himself, Dr. Sandberg understands deeply how every one of his patients is an entire world, and his devotion to his patients and his work shines through. We follow him as he finds his way to neurosurgery as a young doctor through to his most heartbreaking cases and greatest triumphs. We also travel with him to underserved countries, where lifesaving surgeries that are common here are almost nonexistent, and Dr. Sandberg shares the stories of the dedicated doctors and surgeons trying to enact change. Brain and Heart is an unforgettable book that will strengthen our sense of compassion and hope.

  Cougars on the Cliff - One Man's...

  Maurice Hornocker is recognized worldwide as the first scientist to unravel the secrets of America's most enigmatic predator—the mountain lion. A story of redemption, this book is a memoir about the never-before-told adventures, challenges, and controversies surrounding Hornocker's groundbreaking study of cougars in the remote reaches of the Idaho Primitive Area. 
   
   
   
  North America's biggest cat was once killed for bounty dollars, slaughtered with impunity and driven toward extinction. But today's cat of intrigue, despite our lingering fears and misconceptions, has returned to much of its native range in the western United States and gained respect as a predator integral and necessary to wild ecosystems. This turnaround was triggered by one man: Maurice Hornocker. Cougars on the Cliff recounts the early years of his research when he tracked lions following a dog's nose and footprints in the snow—before telemetry was available. Hornocker was first to learn that mountain lions living in stable populations limit their own numbers through territoriality and a concept he called "mutual avoidance." This insight flew in the face of long-held beliefs that cougars were prolific and wanton killers that needed to be controlled as vermin. Thanks to Hornocker's work, today cougars can be found throughout the West and have even started to reclaim their place in New England.
