Birding for Beginners: Northeast
In Stan Tekiela’s Birding for Beginners: Northeast, the author shares his insights and remarkable photos that will help you become a skilled birder in Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
The first section of the book presents “how-to” information. Learn the basics of bird feeders. Get to know your birdseed. Create a bird-friendly yard―and even make your own bird food with do-it-yourself recipes.
The book’s second section is an identification guide, featuring more than 50 Northeast birds that are most likely to be seen at your backyard feeder or near your home.
The species are organized by color, making it simple to identify what you see. If you spot a yellow bird, go to the yellow section to discover what it is. Each bird gets a full-page photograph with notations about key field marks or identification characteristics. The full-color photos are paired with information ranging from the bird’s nest and eggs to favorite foods, as well as Stan’s fascinating naturalist notes.
Give birding a try, and get started with the guidance of an expert. You’ll be amazed at the amount of joy that birds can bring.
