Thousands of people are keeping chickens as pets for the first time. There are plenty of books that will show you how. Doing Bird" tells you what it's like charting the highs & lows in the year of an amateur hen keeper & his flock. Split into months & seasons " Doing Bird" is an extension of Gurdon's highly successful " Sunday Telegraph" " Hen & the Art of Chicken Maintenance" column & brings out the characters & idiosyncrasies of the birds themselves. Highlights include Bombay the Indian runner duck's unrequited & very non-platonic love for Bella the chicken. Sven the rheumatic pensioner cockerel's last stand against a marauding fox & his son Svenson's sometimes awkward transition from teenaged pretender to putative Alpha male with a dodgy aim. We see the power play between flock old stagers Peeping Chicken Anne Summers Brahms Meringue Bella & Nude to new arrivals Squawks 1 & 2 & the pair of birds initially known as 'the other two' until one of them tries savaging the author's hand & is re-christened Slasher
