On a Wing and a Prayer by Sarah Woods

One woman's quest to encounter the enigmatic harpy eagle in the rainforests of South and Central America.
Sarah Woods hacks deep into the rainforest in search of the rare harpy eagle and comes away with more: a greater insight into both the people and wildlife that exist in these tough environments, and herself too* Wanderlust *
I don’t think I’ll ever go to the jungles of South America – they seem hot, sweaty and full of biting things, but I was very glad to read this excellent account of people, places and wildlife, including, perhaps, a Harpy Eagle. -- Mark Avery * Sunday Book Review, Mark Avery's blog *
