Watching Water Birds,
By
This review is from: Watching Water Birds (Watching Wildlife With Jim Arnosky) (Paperback)
Not what I expected but I was certainly not dissapointed. I wanted it because I am a beginning bird watcher. I wanted more technical information than this book gives. I would consider it more of a paperback coffee table book. My five year old grandson, who is interested in everything, loves to have me read it to him. We discuss the birds then go to the river nearby and see if we can find them. All in all, I am happy I purchasedd it.
