Product Description
There are no state-specific books on how to appreciate birds and learn more about them. Like gardening, bird watching is a regional hobby, and the birds that frequent the backyards of Missouri differ from the birds found in Michigan. This series targets beginning and intermediate bird watchers from each Midwestern state.
The books are state-specific and highlight the birds that are found in each state. In addition to the profile, each bird entry includes a map to identity the specific range covered by the bird.
100 birds are presented via full-color photographs for accurate identification.
Full-color seasonal section informs the reader of: the migrating birds that can be seen that month, the foods that attract those birds, the plants that can assist in attracting birds.
Our partner,
Bird Watcher's Digest, has sold more than 4 million copies of their booklets on bird varieties, bird habitat, feeding, and related outdoor topics.

Reader Reviews
This book has beautiful color photos, but is not really a guidebook for locating Minnesota species. This is more of a field guide (which I already own several) and wasn't very helpful in finding the Minnesota specialties. If someone is new to birding, this is a great book. However, for the serious birder aiming to add new species indigenous to Minnesota, this is not a guidebook with locations and maps.
