LOVE, LOYALTY, COMPANIONSHIP: all these things Floyd, an intuitive and observant canine, gives unconditionally to his best person, the Birdman. Over the years, Floyd and the Birdman have done it all together-bird-hunting, fishing, hiking, canoeing, camping, not to mention dancing in the kitchen and watching documentaries on tv. But these days, both man and dog are feeling their age, and despite Floyd's best efforts to the contrary, he fears the Birdman is lonely.
When the Lady moves in up the road, Floyd does his dog-gone best to encourage her and the Birdman in their mutual interest, but pleasantries are not always the Birdman's first inclination. Floyd begins to fear that the Birdman will end up alone despite Floyd's well-meaning interventions, and those worries amplify when Toto Binotto, an Italian researcher and fellow bird enthusiast, becomes a long-staying guest in the Lady's home. With an unforgettable cast of characters both animal and human, and set against the backdrop of the Ottawa Valley with its thick forests and magnificent views of the Northern Lights, The Birdman of Wylie Road is a heart-warming tale of love, loss and lifelong devotion, told with gentle humour and the kind of insight into the complexities of the human heart that only man's best friend could possess.
