Reviews for North American Bird Watching for Beginners

This funny, enthusiastic book grabs you by the hand and drags you through a fast, witty, rundown of all you need to know to start spotting and identifying birds in North America. It'd be great fun even if you're not interested in the subject. If you are interested in starting to bird watch, this is an excellent place to begin. --Paul Cornell, author and TV writer Sharon Stiteler has written a guide with practical, no-nonsense advice and information for beginning birder watchers, even down to the common terms and slang used by more advanced birders. It's an inside look into the world of bird watching that will draw in new birders but is entertaining and informative enough for those of all skill levels. Sharon's expansive knowledge of birds and the natural environment imparts fun facts about common bird species and how to locate and identify them, and her wit and humor shine through on every page. --Stephanie Seymour, hawk counter for Purple Chickadee Hawk Watch and creator of the album There Are Birds
