Product Description

Like gardening, bird watching is a fast-growing regional hobby. Now, Cool Springs Press brings its proven method of successful state-specific gardening approach to bird watching guides. In collaboration with Bird Watcher's Digest, these bird watching guides provide accessible, credible advice.

The birds that frequent the backyards of Alabama differ from the birds that frequent the backyards of Tennessee. In addition to unique descriptions, each bird profile includes a range map to identify each bird's North American distribution. One hundred birds are profiled, each with a color photograph, to ensure accurate identification. A seasonal section informs the reader of:
Migrating birds that can be seen during that season
The foods and plants that can attract those birds
Where to go to view year-round and migrating birds

Cool Springs Press's partner, Bird Watcher's Digest, has sold more than 4 million copies of their booklets on bird species, bird habitat, feeding, and other related topics.

This series of books from Cool Springs Press targets the beginning bird watchers for ten states.

A Must Have for Alabama Bird Watchers5
This book is excellent! My husband, grandson, and I have recently started bird watching. This book is an excellent resource. It is an easy read, has beautiful pictures, and has a lot of information. The only thing I wish it had would be pictures of BOTH the male and female birds. The book is still very much worth the price.

Alabama Bird Watching: A Year- Round Guide5
I also purchased this book for my son and his wife. They have so many different
species of birds in Alabama. They find this book most useful and informative.

easy to use4
Currently using this for my first attempt at birdwatching, and find it to be a good balance of detail and succintness, with photos and other identifying features being helpful.
