This slim, low-priced, easy-to-use field guide is for beginning birding enthusiasts, young adventurers, parents teaching children, new nature lovers, and retirees picking up binoculars. Perfectly positioned to go head to head with Stokes Beginner's Guide to Birds, this book will expand National Geographic's market reach in the birding category.
This fun, affordable, beautifully illustrated introduction to birding is like taking a walk with National Geographic's birding experts. Of this book's 192 pages, 160 are devoted to North America's top species, one per page, from the lowly House Wren to the majestic Bald Eagle. Carefully chosen illustrations and photographs capture the key details and typical behavior of each bird, paired with a short list of essential facts and a fun, fascinating, colloquially written "bird-ography" of each bird. (The latter feature is unique to this beginning field guide). Pictures plus facts plus story- a winning combination. With a small trim size and colorful illustrations, this pocket guide is easy on the eyes and easy to stash. A useful color index aids identification; tips throughout show how to observe, track, and identify birds in nature.
