Enter the GoodReads giveaway for Only a Little While Here by María Ospina Pizano. This award-winning author captures the deep satisfaction that birders and naturalists experience through close, compassionate observation of animals. With her signature grace and curiosity, Ospina focuses on the lives of four creatures: a migrating songbird dazzled by city lights, an orphaned porcupine rescued by human kindness, a devoted dog mourning the loss of her human companion, and a determined beetle carried into an immense, unfamiliar world. The everyday drama of animal life reveals both the fragility and resilience of belonging, and explores what it means to create or lose a home. Each journey compels us to face the beauty and harshness of the world we build around non-human beings. The book offers a powerful reflection on the attention required to heal the divide between humans and animals, honoring their overlooked role as witnesses to our shared existence.
