This book is not meant to be a comprehensive guide to all the birds in north-western North America. Instead, this handy pocket guide showcases some of the more common or iconic birds that call this region home. It offers tips on how to identify them as well as where to look for them. Finding some species may require a jaunt to a national park or conservation area, but for others you need look no farther than your own backyard or local green space. Birds are all around us, and this guide will help you learn a little more about the species that we share our landscape with.
