Kansas Birds: A Folding Pocket Guide to Familiar Species

By James Kavanagh, James Kavanagh Waterford Press, Waterford Press

A hub for grassland birds, Kansas is located along the central flyway and hosts massive congregations of migratory waterfowl. About 300 birds occur annually in the Sunflower State, including such stand-outs as Prairie Chickens, Sandhill Cranes, Western Meadowlarks, and Tricolored Herons. Those keen to forge deeper connections with the tallgrass, mixed-grass, and shortgrass prairies landscapes as well as the myriad of wetlands often look to the ubiquitous bird life, so it helps to have a portable reference for cutting through the clutter and focusing on the most familiar species. The beautifully illustrated Kansas Birds features 140 common species as well as an ecoregion map showing over 20 bird-finding hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and birders who wish to sharpen their bird ID skills and peer more closely into the fascinating lives of the birds of Kansas. Made in the USA.
