Product Description
The first volume of The Pocketguide to Nova Scotia Birds is an ideal companion to birdwatching on the trails or in the back yards of Nova Scotia.
Whether observing spectacular hawks or eagles in the wild or looking at warblers and thrushes at the feeder, the Pocketguide helps identify many of the common--and less common--birds found in the province. There are original full-colour illustrations by Jeffrey Domm painted for this book, along with details of nesting sites, egg size and colour, feeder preferences and size.
The book features full-colour illustrations, an observation calendar, and keys to identifying characteristics of each bird--size, foot type, flight characteristics, feeding technique, and egg type, if breeding in Nova Scotia.
The Pocketguide to Nova Scotia Birds is a handy reference for beginners and practised birders, and includes 25 suggested locations around the province where good birdwatching is assured. (20010702)
