Iowa Nature Set: Field Guides to Wildlife, Birds, Trees & Wildflowers of Iowa

By James Kavanagh and Waterford Press

Iowa is a fertile ground for nature study, owing to its seven national wildlife refuges and 110,000-acre wetland management district. With its vast, sweeping plains, including tallgrass prairie, floodplains, pothole wetlands, and river valleys, Iowa hosts over 2,000 plant species, as well as massive congregations of wildlife, especially migratory waterfowl and cranes. There are also iconic mammals such as American Badger, Black-tailed Prairie Dog, Mule Deer, and White-tailed Deer. To better acquaint you with the natural history of the Hawkeye State, we have packaged together three portable references--Birds, Trees & Wildflowers, and Wildlife--in an attractive acetate bag. Each guide features beautiful illustrations of over 100 common species, as well as an ecoregion map showing top bird-finding, botanical, or wildlife-viewing hotspots. Laminated for durability, these lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guides comprise a comprehensive three-pack for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, botanists, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to forge a deeper connection with Iowa's landscapes by getting to know more about some of the state's most representative species. Made in the USA.
