The author - a naturalist and ornithologist - poses the question: 'What is a true forest? Whose home is it? ' and replies: 'The forest is one of my homes, a place where I discover everything that I cannot find in city shop windows. The forest is the home of my thoughts about those aromas, flavours, imagery and people'.
This text, written by a naturalist and an ornithologist, has two aspects. On the one hand, it is a personal and, at same time, poetic record of an encounter with a flock of cranes in a woodland recess, and on the other hand it remains a professional account about the birds (their mating season, hatching, flights).
