Weeks into the initial throes of a world pandemic, nation-wide protests, and a contentious political election, a raptor nest is built by unwary hawks in a sycamore tree adjacent to a bustling Washington, DC bridge. Passing city buses and incessant foot traffic does little to deter the hawk family from its instinctual routine. People from all walks of life, and near and far neighborhoods, stop to visit the bridge and nest, watching wildlife unfold in all its splendor. But more is revealed than just the hatchlings. Nature is a panacea for what ails us, and brings us closer to the core of our own existence. People of all ages will enjoy and relate to this heart-warming story of nature and nurture as shared in the photographs and field notes of Jennifer Packard. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>"With emotion and intimacy, Jennifer Packard's </em><strong><em>Enraptured by Raptors </em></strong><em>gives not only a snapshot in time of birds in the wild, but a deeply personal and resonant account of the lives of a very different but kindred species."</em></p><p>- <strong>Ed Norton</strong>, Conservation Lands Foundation </p><p><br></p><br>
