Here is a vivid color portfolio of 60 of America’s most popular, most interesting, most colorful garden birds. But not just a lush coffee-table book, Garden Birds of America, is loaded with natural history vignettes of the birds themselves, and illustrated information on how to design and manage gardens and backyards to attract them.– Also included are numerous examples of gardens nationwide and the owners’ stories of cultivating for a harvest of joy and surprises from their lively and colorful winged guests.
“Developing a bird garden in your own backyard is easy to do, relatively inexpensive, and will add value to your property”, says Harrison. “Most importantly, it could add enormously to your quality of life; your daily connection with nature in all its beauty, wonder and fulfillment”.– A bird book for gardeners, and a garden book for birders, Garden Birds of America is a stunning collaboration between an award-winning nature writer and award-winning nature book designer.
