ABOUT THE AUTHOR He’s a birder, and geneticist. His name is pronounced “Avis”,      With a silent “e”,      So that you can see: He’s an odd bird, slightly amiss! Poetry is his hobby, In office or a lobby;      It keeps him sane,      And not too vain Or snobby. ABOUT THE BOOK It’s a textbook like no other, So why did Avise bother?      To achieve lasting fame,      And enhance his name As a great literary author! Natural history and biology Fully covered from A to Z.      Humorous, delightful,      And wisely insightful, Sheer poetry! ABOUT LIMERICKS Such poems he hopes to transform… To a sublime and lofty art-form:      Clean, wise, funny,      Delightfully punny, And meant to biologically inform. .
