  abstract: Author becomes a bird watcher, and sets record for number of birds counted.
  abstract: When Hayward quit a lucrative but unfulfilling job, he went birding. It was a lifelong passion in which he found a calm that had eluded him in the confusing world of humans. But this time he also found competition. His growing list of species reluctantly catapulted him into a Big Year-- a race to find the most birds in one year. It was the perfect distraction to life-- and Hayward shocked the birding world by finding 749 species of bird and breaking the long-standing Big Year record. Along the way he found a renewed sense of confidence and hope about the world and his place in it.
