The passenger pigeon by Errol Fuller | review | @GrrlScientist

Written by an artist and authority on extinct species, this book shares rare photographs and other visual materials to provide a general overview to the history of the extinct passenger pigeon.

Men still live who, in their youth, remember pigeons. Trees still live who, in their youth, were shaken by a living wind. But a decade hence only the oldest oaks will remember, and at long last only the hills will know.

-- Leopold Aldo, A Sand County Almanac: And Sketches Here and There (1949, 1989. New York: Oxford University Press. p. 109.)
