Drawing on their birding expertise and the advances in photography over the last five decades, the resulting guide will encourage beginners and pros alike to cherish this unsung aspect of birding. N early 50 years since the renowned series first published a full book about nests, naturalists Casey McFarland, Matthew Monjello, and David Moskowitz are back with a stunning guide that features 650 breeding birds across the continent and 750 photographs of nests. Readers of the Peterson Field Guide to North American Bird Nests, published earlier this year, will be treated to photographs and tips to match that nest, and hundreds of others, with its maker. With a cottony interior, finely woven bark shreds, and outer lichen fleck décor, it's just one example of how birds' homes can reflect and enrichen our appreciation of species themselves. Four stars for KORDA'S JUNGLE BOOK.What could possibly contain the color and verve of a Rufous Hummingbird? A Rufous Hummingbird nest, of course. He is quite good in the Jungle Book (but he was ALWAYS good) there being more humor than fact in John Prine's song 'Sabu Visits the Twin Cities Alone' :īut I think Sabu would've gotten a giggle from it. Sabi's last film was A TIGER WALKS for DISNEY (he died of a heart attack in December of 1963, so he never got to see the finished film which wasn't released until 1964. And that's Rosemary deCamp as 'Messua' (Mowgli's human mother) she was also the mother in the original William Castle 1960 classic 13 GHOSTS. It's a little difficult to spot 'Dick Tracy' (Ralph Byrd) under the 'Durga' makeup, but he's there. So much so that the Cub Scouts of America are set up based on these stories. There are many classic Kipling tales in the two Jungle Books that are NOT about Mowgli 'Rikki-Tikki-Tavi', 'The White Seal', 'The Miracle of Purun Bhagat', but it is the Mowgli stories that really caught the imagination of the public. This was the second time he'd played a role based on a Kipling story, incidentally-the first time was in 1937's ELEPHANT BOY (based on another short story from the FIRST 'Jungle Book' (this one NOT about Mowgli) called 'Toomai of the Elephants. Sabu (full name Sabu Dastagir.MAYBE there's some controversy about that-his BROTHER may have been Sabu Dastagir while HE was really Selar Shaykh Sabu-but either way he's a SABU) was one good looking guy when he was young (which may have helped attract me to this movie.leave us face it, it didn't HURT)was 18 when he made THE JUNGLE BOOK. And the 'Just So Stories' and 'Puck of Pook's Hill' and.ok I know it's consdiered uncool to actually read anything other than Harry Potter these days so I'll just leave it there. I have loved this movie for MANY decades, just as I loved both of the 'jungle Books' by Rudyard Kipling.
