Description

There's so much to learn when exploring the rich birdlife of the Peach State, which is home to over 400 permanent residents, regular breeders, or annual migrants. Georgia's state bird Brown Thrasher leads a life as fascinating as the Painted Bunting is beautiful. There are also local specialties like Brown-headed Nuthatch and loads of Neotropical migrants to be seen in spring and fall. With such a diverse assemblage of bird species, it helps to have a portable reference to the most familiar species. In the beautifully illustrated Georgia Birds, 140 common species are featured along with an ecoregion map showing over 20 bird-viewing hotspots. Laminated for durability, this 12-panel pocket folding guide is ideal for educators, learners, naturalists, and birders who wish to deepen their connection with the land by connecting more deeply with its avian life. Made in the USA.
