Birder’s Handbook: A Field Guide to the Natural History of North American Birds

This is the most complete and authoritative reference book about the birds of North America—up to date and in field-guide format.

The Birder’s Handbook is the first of its kind: a portable library of fascinating information not included in your identification guide. For each of the 646 species of birds that breed in North America, The Birder’s Handbook will tell you at a glance:
• Where the bird nests, and which sex(es) build(s) the nest;
• How many eggs the bird lays, what they look like, which parent incubates and for how long, and how the young are cared for;
• Food preferences and foraging habits.
