A Field Guide to the Extinct Birds

Gavin Adams has isolated himself in a remote jungle hut for 20 years, ever since his work on the Alpine Booby was purged from the Encyclopedia of Extinct Species—on the grounds that the species never existed. He plans a triumphant comeback (and revenge), claiming now to have found a living colony of Alpine Booby, but his plan unravels when a would-be disciple tracks him down and offers to help.
