Birding for Beginners Giveaway

Birding is America’s most popular outdoor activity. And for the millions of Americans suddenly working or sheltered at home, learning the names, colors, and characteristics of nature’s feathered favorites is a brand-new passion. Stan Tekiela’s Birding for Beginners is the only series for new birders that provides expert guidance by region, and we are celebrating this new series with our Birding for Beginners Giveaway. So read on, and don’t forget to enter for your chance to win one of Stan Tekiela’s Birding for Beginners books of your choice and a pack of four wildlife finger puppets. 

The finger puppets (a robin, cardinal, owl, and eagle) range in size from 4 to 7 inches and are crafted by Folkmanis. This giveaway is done in cooperation with The Wildlife Center of Virginia, and the puppets represent some of the patients the center treats each year. 

About the Series: Stan Tekiela’s Birding for Beginners is the only series for new birders that provides expert guidance by region. Part “how-to” information and part bird identification guides, the books focus on the most common and important bird species in, respectively, California, Northeast, Pacific Northwest, Rocky Mountains, Midwest, South, and Southwest, so users can identify the birds they see in their communities. Organized by color for ease of use, the text also gives readers everything they need to know about bird feeders, seed, and other supplies. The high-quality paperbacks feature rounded corners for ruggedness in the field. Each book is 176 to 192 pages and priced at $16.95. All will be published on September 8, 2020.
