Description
"For nearly five decades, poet Brendan Galvin has written about the birds of the tidal flats, woods, and marshes around his Cape Cod home and on islands in the North Atlantic. He knows their field marks, habits, and songs, and his work demonstrates an obvious fascination with them. Whirl is King gathers forty-three of his bird poems about herons, owls, shorebirds, warblers, raptors, wrens, and other exotic visitors blown in by wind and storm. Whirl is King features Galvin's hallmark descriptive powers and verbal music on full display and demonstrates his talent as a contemporary poet."--Jacket.
