A forgivable error, but with the Field Guide to Backyard Birds of the Northeast, you’ll be distinguishing between juveniles and adults in no time.

In this edition, each of the Northeast region’s 80 most popular bird species gets its own page, complete with a concise description, preferred habitat, feeding and migration habits, and tips for attracting them to your bird feeders. Illustrated with colorful range maps, vibrant images, and a brilliant tabbed layout that helps you quickly search for birds by color, this portable field book will never again let that elusive Scarlet Tanager out of your watchful skyward gaze. Northeastern states include Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York.
