Birds of Prey of the West Field Guide
Identifying birds of prey is easier than ever! Stan Tekiela's famous field guide features Western birds of prey: all 52 species of hawks, eagles, falcons, kites, vultures, and owls found in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. The birds are organized by group for ease of use, and each entry is accompanied by fact-filled naturalist information and gee-whiz facts that are accessible for beginners but informative for more experienced birders. Stunning photographs and Quick-Compare sections—such as raptors in flight—help to make watching birds of prey more enjoyable, informative, and productive.
