Customer Reviews

Very knowledgeable book

I left a copy of this book on an airplane when visiting my daughter. Didn't think I would every find another copy. The seller was quick in sending it to me and it was in good condition, just as they said. Fast service. Thanks a million.

book

i have this book and bought it for my best friend. It has a lot of easy, inexpensive ideas; great reference book.

Fun and informative

At first sight, this book may not look too impressive. No glossy pages and full-color pictures. However, it is one of the best birding books I own. So much information written in a fun and easy-to-read way. My copy was a gift from my husband. I enjoyed and learned so much from it, I bought one for my brother-in-law, too. If you want to understand how to best feed the birds and attract more to your yard, buy this book.

Browsable & informative

I sit in my window-side chair, watch birds, sip coffee and browse this book... and I'm happy. Thanks, John.

A pleasure to read

Most birding books are best perused, but Dennis's books are a pleasure to read cover to cover. Also, the illustrations are incredibly perfect and gorgeously detailed. Plenty of personally-acquired information here, including some tips for deterring squirrels and other pests.
