Book Description
The Songbirds Bible is an essential guide for the birdwatchers of North America. Every bird appears on its own two-page, full-color spread. The wire-O binding allows the book to open completely and easily, and each spread includes the following features:
• the common name and the Latin name of the genus and species • a finely detailed illustration of the bird’s shape and markings • a map showing distribution throughout North America • a verbal and graphic description of the song • a concise list describing behavior, nest shape, food • advice on attracting the birds to the reader’s garden
The Songbirds Bible is not only rich in visual detail: the accompanying CD features a sample of every bird’s song! Locating each sample is easy: every song appears on its own track, and each spread in the book is clearly marked with the track number. No one who is passionate about birds will want to be without this guide!
