Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Glenn D. Chambers (illustrator). If you care about North America's ducks and geese, this book is for you. You can start reading at the beginning and go straight through, or you can start with what interests you most and skip around according to your likes. When you dip into these pages, you meet a rich assortment of waterfowlers whose professions have enabled them to become experts in such fields as duck and goose biology, waterfowl management, and wetland ecology. Fireside Waterfowler is organized around the yearly life cycle of ducks and geese and has many fascinating offshoots. the drama opens with the springtime rebirth of land and water, goes through the growing and maturing seasons of summer and fall, and then looks at the endurance and survival of waterfowl in winter. This format allows the editors - one American, one Canadian - to include just about every topic of importance to waterfowl and waterfowlers, and to just about any significant area from Mexico to Canada.
