Birding,
By A Customer
This review is from: Birds of Seattle and Puget Sound (City Bird Guides) (Paperback)
Birds of Seattle and Puget Sound is our most used identification source. We are beginners, and get confused with tomes which identify every bird in North America. This little book brings us the instant joy of identifying our flying guests while they are still at the feeder or bath. We appear to be "experts" to our house guests who marvel at the variety of birds visiting our yard.

This review is from: Birds of Seattle and Puget Sound (City Bird Guides) (Paperback)
This in an excellent book for the birds in this area. My 5 year old can identify all the birds in our backyard and can easily look up the new birds that come around. A must for parents who have children and birdfeeders.

Great book for begininng birdwatchers!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Birds of Seattle and Puget Sound (City Bird Guides) (Paperback)
No more sifting through field guides containing hundreds of birds you will never see around here. The authors of this book have limited their scope to the birds of this region. Many helpful illustrations and charts help a beginner with identification. I plan to use this book to assist Boy Scouts with their Bird Studies Merit Badge
