The Boxwood Press: The Bird Year

THE BIRD YEAR:

A Book for Birders


by John Davis and Alan Baldridge 1987, 5.5x8.5, 224 pp., illus., paper, $9.95, ISBN: 0-910286-62-0
BIRDS are the most highly specialized of animals, and even the most common species show striking adaptations. Merely to record their presence is to miss a great deal of fascinating, easily observed natural history. For the enthusiastic birder whose interest extends beyond bird identification. Learn more about the mating game, nesting, migration, types of habitats, and habitat adjustments. Though there is a special reference to the Monterey Bay Area, the principles described apply to birds everywhere.

"...a gem of an introduction to ornithology...deserves a far wider audience than its limited focus would suggest" American Birds
