The Wisdom of Birds by Tim Birkhead

Review by Stephen Moss

You wait fr one history of ornithology to come along and a whole lock appears over
the horizon. 9 However in the past few years a clutch of scents, journalists,
taxonomists and birders (including myself) have turned their attention to this fascinating and
complex topic

‘One ofthe most exciting things about the study of birds is that it isnot yet complete. We may
smile at the beliefs of our ancestors = such as the notln that swallows spent ther winter
hibernating underwater - yet there stil so much that we don’t know. Writing almost a century
ago. the German-American ornithologist Paul Bartsch drew attention to our ignorance about
‘many aspects of bird behaviour: "There are sill many unsolved problems about birdie. Lie
100, is known about the laws and routes of migration, and much less about the final disposition
ofthe untold thousands which are annually produced 10 For, despite great progress,
modern bird studies often give rise to new and even more complex inquiries

‘Tim Birkhead is well qualiied to examine the ways successive generations have tried to answer
the fundamental questions about birds. A professor at the University of Sheffield, he specializes
in two very diferent disciplines: de study of anual Veiviout aud ie My uf sue

nu In t,he ranges from Aristote to modern scientists such as Peter Berthold
whose migration studies have revealed much about how birds migrate round the world

Unlike other histories of the subject, The Wisdom of Bids doesnot take a chronological
approach. 12 In other hands this might have been confusing, but Birkhead steers
his narrative through this complex structure to el a compelling toy.

He is clearly passionate, not just about the birds themselves, but also about the people who
have studied them, and the works they have produced. So The Wisdom of Birds is lvishiy
¡Mustrated with examples of bird at, including many from the early works of ornithology
1

Ihe book has a hero, it san unlikely but deserving one. Birkhead begins and ends with
challenge to his colleagues: who is the greatest ever ornithologist 14 But
Birkhead’s own choice is an often neglected seventeenth-century Englishman, John Ray. He
launched the revolutionary concept of studying living birds in the fie, rather than dead ones in

15 John Ray travel through time to be the guest of honour a an International
Ornithological Congres. As Birkhead says: “He would be amazed by how much we know and,
of course, by how much more there is stil to learn about bis: This i a fitting ending to a book
that is one of the most entertaining, informative and enthusiastic accounts of the history of
omithology and of the many different ways in which we have observed, studied and wondered
about birds

‘These two interests come together in The Wisdom of Birds

Much the same could be said today

These, and the fine production ofthe book ts add immensely to the readers satisfaction

The subject was neglected for decades.

Instead, Birkhead explore orithological themes such as birdsong, the breeding cycle and
migration, moving back and forth across the centuries.

Indoor walls can be from 7 1 16 metes, although some centres have walls of 20 metes or
‘more. Each wall has bolton hols (to place your fet and hands) of diferent shapes and size
These can be moved around and varied to make the climb more or less challenging - and routes
can be changed every few months. ‘Big holds, spaced comfortably apar so that you ean easily
move your feet and hands from one othe other without too much trouble, ae the easiest John
explains. "10 "That kind of climb is called Slab

‘Ticker climbs have smaller holds that are harder o grip, and thy are spaced more awhwandly

Sales can depend on just 18 minutes under te spotlight James Hal reports

‘A Ins Burbery’s catwalk show during Milan Fashion Week. The tet, pitched in a courtyard
in an exquisite building on Milan's Corso Venezia, gradually ils with 1000 fashion editors and
representatives from the world's smartest department stores al ltchng invites as thick as,

crowd dashes 1 the next event

8, Welcome tothe sausage factory of high fasion. Burberry show is one of about 100 that
{ake place during Milan Fashion Week. T the outside word, fashion weeks ike Milan's appear
to belle more than a love in for the luxury goods sector, However, beneath the gliz) er
‘here i serious business going on. Fashion editors can make or break brand with a favourable
‘or cruel review. Designers entre careers can hang on one collection. But, most ruc, retail
‘executives will place orders worth hundred of millons of pounds based on what they sce

So how does the business of Fashion Week work? What ae the mechanics of he event? And
how immediate are the benefits ifthe show is deemed ahi? For Burberry, Milan Fashion Weck 5
the zenith ofthe year. Although Burberry is known inthe UK as a retailer over 40 per cent of ts
annual sales come from sellin its clothes through othe people's shops around the word ts four
annual shows at Milan ar its main chance to show retailers what tha to offer. Creating a bust
in the fashion press is equally important as these same collections vil be on sale at Butbery's
own shops. Burberry has jut minutes to do this in each show.

D_ Christopher Bally, Burberry creative directo, starts picking out fabrics for the clothes
months before the show. The anges ae only mast produced once the orders come in ater
Fashion Week, so geting the looks ight for the catwalk is absolutely key. Mr Batley explains that
Milan is is chance o set out Burberry sal forthe rst the ya Sii cut hors ts eo

same night, you have to make an impression he says,

E__Burberry starts to fitout the venue about two weeks before the show. Lighting, seating,
sound system, décor, backstage ara, they ae all planned in minute deal and designed by Mr
Bailey to echo the show's theme. Store windows around the word are also co ordiated to miror
the themes. The company does not disclose the event budget, but itis clearly huge. The seating
arrangement has à strict hierarchy. There are blocks of sat for differen groups: a block forthe
‘most important fashion editors (around and opposite the company’s managemen), a block for
retail buyers from Europe, a block for emerging markets and so on. An early Indicator Of à show's

F Fortunately, Burberry show is exceptionally well-attended Although the 18 minutes of the
show are crucial the 24 hours folowing the event ae arguably more important. This is wien the

end ofthe show, dozens of fashion journalist and TV crews rush backstage to grab a word with
him. Clips, quotes and reviews ae online and on newewites within minutes. At dam the moming
after the show, Burberry opens its showroom above its store in Milan. This isthe ost important

WHAT'S TESTED.

The questions in Part 3 of the Use of English Paper test you mainly on vocabulary. You are required
to form a range of kinds of word from the words given ~in any gap you may be required to form

an adjective, noun, a verb or an adverb, Some questions require you to use prefixes and many
‘questions require you to use suffices,

Sometimes, question may require another kind of change tothe word given = an internal change
{not adding a prefix or suffi to make a longer word, but changing the form ofthe word, for example
changing the verb ‘speak’ to the noun ‘speech, or forming a compound (a word formed by putting
together two of more separate words for example, changing the noun ‘las tothe compound noun
‘assroom).

TIPS

will help you to know the context fr filing each gap.

When you form each word, decide fist of all what kind of word it must be (an adjective, a
noun, a verb or an adverb). Look carefully at what comes both before and after each gap so
that you can decide what kind of word is required

Then decide what the required word must mean. For example, ts an adjective, sita
negative adjective requiring a prefix? If itis a noun, should it be plural?

When you have filled a gap, read the sentence that contains it again - make sure that it makes
sense and i grammatically correct with the word you have put int the ap.

The following exercises will help you to write the coret answer to each question inthe test. When
you have completed each exercise, check your answers and then write your answer for the question in
the test.

1. Foreach question, decide what kind of word (A-D you need to put into each gap. Some of the

‘The cycling holiday that went wrong,

there's an oncoming juggernaut so, without dropping below SOkph, the motorbikes swerve within
