In a world chasing big stories, Frederic Buse found one in the stillness of his backyard. Not in breaking news or global charts—but in the hush before sunrise, in the flash of feathers at the feeder, and in the silence where birdsong once lived.
In his newly released book, Lifestyles of Back Yard Birds and How They Are Affected by Climate Change, Buse offers a rare gift: fifty years of handwritten records, deep listening, and emotional truth. Published by Author’s Tranquility Press and now available on Amazon, this is a book that doesn’t just tell us what’s happening to our planet. It shows us—gently, honestly, and through the eyes of the birds who always knew.
This Is What It Looks Like When the Seasons Lose Their Way
In 1969, Buse began tracking the birds in his Pennsylvania backyard. What started as simple notes—arrival dates, nesting, feeding habits—grew into a sweeping, five-decade archive of 79 species, and a portrait of climate change unfolding in real time.
His pages reveal the kind of details most of us miss:
-
Sparrow population has disappeared
-
Springs that arrived too early
-
Droughts that emptied birdbaths
-
Familiar guests who never returned
What changed wasn’t just the birds. It was everything.
Not a Warning—A Witness
What makes Lifestyles of Back Yard Birds so powerful isn’t just the data. It’s the quiet reverence. The ache. The joy. The grief. Buse writes like someone who loved enough to notice—and noticed enough to understand.
Inside the book, readers will find:
-
Charts and narratives detailing 50 years of subtle but profound ecological shifts
-
Stories of warblers and wrens, crows and cardinals, hawks and hummingbirds
-
Moments of small magic: a shared birdbath, a return after absence, a final song
-
A deeply human voice asking: what happens when we pay attention too late?
