"The Birds at My Table is a delightful and informative read by a
keen naturalist and gifted scholar that will deepen your
understanding of birds and why so many of us are compelled to feed
them." — John M. Marzluff, Professor of Wildlife Science and author
of Welcome to Subirdia
"The Birds at My Table is an impressively comprehensive study of
why people feed birds and how birds are affected by this practice.

history and ecological effects of bird feeding. Jones convincingly
shows that bird feeding is a global practice with ethical
implications." — Jeff Karnicky, author of Scarlet Experiment: Birds
and Humans in America
