Birds of the Pacific Northwest: How to Identify 25 of the Most Popular Backyard Birds

Includes an At-a-Glance Index for easier bird identification. This edition also has separate photos of males and females, except for bird species in which the sexes are similar in appearance. We also pulled a switch-a-roo, trading out two bird species, the House Wren and the Violet-green Swallow, for the Black-headed Grosbeak and the Barn Swallow. (Never fear: The House Wren and the Violet-green Swallow will be appearing in another work, which will be coming out soon.)
