Good question. I found the section where the author experiences the mind-meld with an Osprey to be the only charming part of the piece. It's an unguarded moment in a guarded essay. It's also downright bizarre but endearing and an experience anyone could have to an encounter in the woods. It's very human. Shame that it's encased in all that objectivity, indeed.
