This work focuses on the lesser-known fauna of India, particularly birds, showcasing their characteristics, behaviors, and the interactions they have with their environment. Dewar's keen observation and wit promise an engaging and informative exploration of the vibrant life found in Indian jungles. The opening of the work introduces the author's intent to focus on the smaller and often overlooked members of the animal kingdom, particularly birds such as mynas, babblers, and cuckoos, rather than the more commonly celebrated larger wildlife. Dewar describes the rich diversity of Indian birds, emphasizing the unique behaviors and traits of various species. He sets a light-hearted and informative tone, promising readers an entertaining journey through the quirks and beauties of Indian avifauna as he shares his observations and insights from personal encounters with these creatures in their natural habitats.
