Leshem's fascinating life, his undaunted determination to spread awareness of birds and wildlife protection, and his amazing accomplishments are a clear indication that anything is possible... This inspiring title on a most timely topic will appeal to those who are fascinated with wildlife, Earth science, and technology. Vogel’s well-paced text explains how Leshem became interested in nature generally and bird migration specifically and describes the tools and practices he has developed, including the use of gliders and drones to document the birds crossing Israeli airspace. The book highlights the ways in which applied science can support not just national and commercial interests (and vice versa) but also international goodwill and global conservation.
When Israeli army planes collide with birds in the air, ornithologist Yossi Leshem finds a remarkable way to save the pilots, the planes, and the birds. Leshem helps the Israeli military navigate the skies with his radar monitoring system, and begins a peace program to bring children of the Middle East together to help with bird migration projects.
