Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating world of birds often ignored by casual nature observers, including water and game birds, along with birds of prey. The author's love of these creatures is evident in the insightful descriptions of their habits, habitats and behaviors. The book begins with a look at shorebirds, which arrive from the north in late July and stay through September. Next, the author turns her attention to the ducks that begin their flight south in October and can often be seen in large numbers throughout the winter. While at the beach in late fall or midwinter, the reader may catch a glimpse of gulls, terns, and other ocean birds. Protected waters like Lynn, Revere or other locations often make for the best sightings as the birds are more trusting and easier to approach. Rounding out the book's exploration are hawks, owls and the osprey. These birds are most common during the spring and fall migrations, but can be spotted year-round. The author hopes that by sharing her knowledge and appreciation for these often-overlooked species, readers will develop a newfound interest in their study and protection.
