Book Description
Perfect for any beginning bird watcher, here is an illustrated field
guide to 30 common North American backyard bird species, nestled in
its own plastic bird feeder. Featuring everything from Jays to
Juncos to Song Sparrows to Chickadees, the book also explains how to
set up the feeder, what kinds of food to serve when, and how to keep
unwelcome guests away. It tells why hummingbirds hum and who wins
the prize as the worst mother (the Cowbird, who lays its eggs in
another birds nest!). Plus, learn all about migration, nesting, and
the fun of keeping a bird journal.
The see-through plastic feeder comes with two suction cups, and can
attach to the window, sit on the sill, or hang from a tree. Use it
and learn from it all year long. Suitable for ages 5-12. Selection
of the Children's Book-of-the-Month Club. 957,000 copies in print.
