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 patent incubates and for how long, and how the young are cared for
- Food preferences and foraging habits
You will also find information about displays and mating, wintering, conservation status, and much more. In addition, The Birder’s Handbook contains some 250 short essays covering all aspects of avian natural history.

Store description
Here at NW Book Rescue, we strive to keep used books and media out of landfills and in the hands of caring folks. Our team searches through pre-loved books and media to find you the gems: the old, the beautiful, the historic, the long lost favorites, the new centerpiece, the new-to you favorite read, watch, or listen. In the age of on-demand streaming, we believe in the preservation of physical media; there's nothing quite like the smell of an old book or the sound of a good record. We hope that you'll explore with us, find great treasures, and let us be a part of your used book and media experience. We also sell on Amazon and purchase/appraise books locally! We are located in Hubbard, Oregon and serve the Portland/Salem area. If you have any questions or are looking for something specific, shoot us a message: we are here to help!…
