Customer Reviews

excellent book for any wildlife enthusiast

My uncle lent me this book and I have enjoyed every page of it. The Harrisons do an excellent job enlightening the reader about the basic wildlife species found in most any backyard. In addition, if you don't have these species showing up around your bird feeder, bath or in the trees, and meadows and the like around your home, they give hints to help you attract them. If you enjoy wildlife and want to learn as much as possible about the species that inhabit the treelines, sub divisions, marshes and gardens that surround you, this book is a must read.
