Mystery of the Missing Migrants, 1990, by Charley Harper has been 
thoughtfully reproduced in this engagingly and intricate 
1,000-piece interlocking jigsaw puzzle.

Combining superb color reproduction, stunning and unusual images, 
and sturdy construction to delight generations of novice and 
veteran puzzle workers.  

In the artist's own words: For centuries, the neotropical 
migrants in this picture have shuttled between winter homes in 
the tropical rainforest and nesting sites in our woodlands. Now 
their populations are plummeting. Why? Habitat destruction. Down 
There? Up Here? Is your favorite songster in this flock? Each 
April, I listen anxiously to the dawn chorus for the return 
of my favorite, that world-class flutist, the Wood Thrush. Are 
silent springs forthcoming? Remember the canary in the coal mine?

Forty-five birds are presented in Charley 
Harper's own unique "minimal realism" 
style. See the back of the puzzle box for 
the identification of each species.
