as noted earlier (by David), the title of the book by Elkins is "Weather
and bird behaviour".
The lead article in 'Weather' November 2002 was entitled 'Birds, weather
and climate', and Norman was one of the co-authors. If you can't get
hold of the book (above), this article gives a useful introduction to
the subject.
