About this Item

Fine condition color illustrated softcover wraps. Includes Dedication; Introduction; Preliminary Page Topography of a Bird; and Index. Profusely illustrated with color paintings. ". The intent of this book is to provide a reference for those birds encountered in Florida as well as those a beginning birder may seek out because of the uniqueness of the state. This book will not attempt to cover all three hundred plus species of birds that may be found in Florida, but it will cover those that attract the attention of the beginning birder and that can be found in the most visited places in the state. In many cases, plumages of different seasons are given because these can, and usually will, be represented at one time of the year or another. The topography of a bird is given to help in identifications. The birds discussed in this text are fairly easily found in the correct habitat at the proper time of the year. It is recommended that a diary be kept by writing where and when you first sight a bird on the page that the bird is listed. This will come in handy in years to come in remembering places and events. This practice is very rewarding and is similar to keeping a family album. Indeed, these birds will become part of your family." - excerpt from the introduction. Seller Inventory # 004451
