The article discusses a new book, "The Bird Singers" by Jean Boucault and Johnny Rasse, which chronicles the authors' childhood experiences learning to communicate with birds. It highlights how their bond and love for nature shaped their understanding of the human experience. Through the lens of curiosity, patience, and listening, the book emphasizes the importance of nature in fostering connections and community. Set against the backdrop of the Baie de Somme, the memoir conveys deep reflections on friendship and personal growth through the adventure of discovering birdsong.
We wanted our readers, whether young or old, to take flight and land in our beautiful Baie de Somme. The book is a tribute to the Baie de Somme.
Our childhood perspectives and our two journeys make up the book. The parallel stories of Jean, known as "the Herring Gull," and Johnny, "the Blackbird," represent the improbable meeting of land and sea.
