Publisher's Synopsis
California is a bird-finding mecca with over 600 species having been found in the state. About 450 of these are either permanent residents, regular breeders, or annual migrants, and among these are regional endemics like California Condor, Yellow-billed Magpie, and Island Scrub Jay. Not to be forgotten is the state bird, the delightful and quirky California Quail. Learning such a vast array of birds is a tall order, which is why the 12-panel folding pocket guide California Birds is so useful. It includes 140 common and familiar species as well as an ecoregion map showing over 20 bird-finding hotspots. Laminated for durability, this rich collection will allow educators, learners, naturalists, and birders to identify California's birds, while forging a deeper and more meaningful relationship with the land through its attendant avifauna. Made in the USA.
