Hardcover - 160 pages - by Jo S. Kittinger
DK Publishing
An easy-to-use guide to 140 species of birds found primarily
in the eastern region of North America.
Each page contains detailed information such as where the
bird lives, the type of nest it builds, how it sounds, what it
eats, and how it looks.
The photos show the brilliant colors of each bird in spring
and summer (called "breeding plumage"). Listings also
include a map with colors to show what time of year a particular
bird might be in your area. Learn how and when birds migrate,
and how each bird differs from the other. This is a fantastic
introduction to birdwatching for all ages, but written especially
with kids in mind. Use it in your backyard, or on family outings,
to identify feathered friends along the way. Use it in the classroom
to enhance studies on seasonal migration and wildlife.
It's small enough to tuck into a backpack or jacket pocket,
and measures approximately 7"x5", & is 160 pages
in length. Contains over 1,000 color photographs!
