Quick Overview An Illustrated Introduction to the Fascinating Birds of Bidwell Park Without some effort on the part of the observer, all birds seem similar. This book gives personalities to the many different but most common birds of Bidwell Park. Although not a comprehensive field guide, you should be able to identify virtually all of the birds you are likely to spot in the park during a casual stroll or a long hike any time of year using this book. Bidwell Park is a wonderful place to see birds because it is both semi-wild and very accessible. It is good birdwatching for both the beginner and expert. Because of the terrain, vegetation, human use, and elevation change, the bird life is alittle different between the western and eastern parts of the park. Nearly 200 species of birds have been sighted in Bidwell Park, but some are seen only at certain times of the year and others rarely at any time. This book introduces you to 86 of these wonderful inhabitants. Author: Roger Lederer, PhD Illustrated: Carol Burr, PhD

When we see a bird flying from branch to branch happily chirping, it is easy to imagine they lead a simple life of freedom, flight, and feathers. What we don't see is the arduous, life-threatening challenges they face at every moment. Beaks, Bones, and Bird Songs guides the listener through the myriad, and often almost miraculous, things that birds do every day to merely stay alive. Like the goldfinch, which manages extreme weather changes by doubling the density of its plumage in winter. Or urban birds, which navigate traffic through a keen understanding of posted speed limits. In engaging and accessible prose, Roger Lederer shares how and why birds use their sensory abilities to see ultraviolet, find food without seeing it, fly thousands of miles without stopping, change their songs in noisy cities, navigate by smell, and much more.
