Yellowlegs

In 'Yellowlegs' John Janovy again displays his rare talent for making the scientific accessible and the personal universal. The result is an extraordinary parable of man and technology. It is also an intensely personal account of one man's journey toward an understanding of himself, of his fellow man, and perhaps most important, of the secrets of a single sandpiper; a Tringa flavipes, or lesser yellowlegs.

We fly with Janovy's Yellowlegs from its nesting grounds in the far Canadian north to South America and back.
