Some of the books I have include:
Title | Author | ISBN | Comments |
---|---|---|---|
Dorling Kindersley Handbooks: Birds of Canada | Fred J. Alsop III | 1-55363-011-4 | My newest and soon to be favorite combined with the Sibley Guide. Highly recommend this. |
National Audubon Society: The Sibley Guide to Birds | David Allen Sibley | 0-679-45122-6 | Wow. That was my first impression. A very good book. |
Stokes Field Guide to Birds, Eastern Region | Donald and Lillian Stokes | 0-316-81809-7 | My first field guide. Photo based rather than drawings (ie Sibley). |
Birds at your Feeder, A Guide to Feeding Habits, Behavior, Distribution and Abundance | Erica H. Dunn & Diane L. Tessaglia-Hymes | 0-393-32231-9 | A interesting collection of information from Project Feeder Watch. More information on this project is available at Cornell Laboratory of Orthinology or Bird Studies Canada |
National Audubon Society: The Sibley Guide to Bird Life and Behavior | Sibley, Elphick & Dunning | 0-679-45123-4 | The perfect complement to the Sibley Guide above. More information than most of us amateurs want to know, but a good starting point to expand your knowledge base |
The Peterson Field Guide Series: Feeder Birds, Eastern North America | Roger Tory Peterson | 0-618-05944-X | A great book for the house, and kid/senior friendly too. Large pictures and fonts |
