Book Description

October 20, 2004

Like gardening, bird watching is a fast-growing regional hobby. Now, Cool Springs Press brings its proven method of successful state-specific gardening approach to bird watching guides. In collaboration with Bird Watcher's Digest, these bird watching guides provide accessible, credible advice.

The birds that frequent the backyards of Florida differ from the birds that frequent the backyards of Tennessee. In addition to unique descriptions, each bird profile includes a range map to identify the each bird's North American distribution. One hundred birds are profiled, each with a color photograph, to ensure accurate identification. A seasonal section informs the reader of:
Migrating birds that can be seen during that season
The foods and plants that can attract those birds
Where to go to view year-round and migrating birds

Cool Springs Press's partner, Bird Watcher's Digest, has sold more than 4 million copies of their booklets on bird species, bird habitat, feeding, and other related topics.

This series of books from Cool Springs Press targets the beginning bird watchers for ten states.

3.0 out of 5 stars fair, February 23, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Florida Bird Watching: A Year-Round Guide (Paperback)
This is a good book with good pictures and information. I only wish it covered more birds with more information about each bird. Some questions that I had about certain birds were not answered. And some birds that I see in my own backyard are not in the book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Just Saying. . . ., November 29, 2010

This review is from: Florida Bird Watching: A Year-Round Guide (Paperback)
I fail to see how anyone who is not a year-round birder from the state he or she is writing about can adequately write this type of book and do it justice. Thus, my disappointment with this book and others in the same series by the author. Just saying. . . .
