Backyard Bird Tracker

Birdwatchers will value this field guide, which combines a logbook for note taking with bird identification photos, illustrations, and capsule descriptions.

The book's special features include: A full-color section showing 50 bird species most commonly seen in the eastern half of North America. A 104-page two-color note-taking section with two-page spreads for each week--enough space for a full year of bird observation notes. There is also information on choosing and using binoculars, bird population trends, making one's yard a friendly place for visiting birds, joining birdwatcher's clubs, and much more. Ninety-four full-color photos and illustrations plus diagrams and charts.
