National Geographic Complete Birds of North America
by Jonathan Alderfer
hardcover; 640 pages; published November 15, 2005
New from the National Geographic Society is the National Geographic Complete Birds Of North America. Unlike the NGS, this book is a species natural history reference containing 4,000 illustrations, 150 color photographs covering 960 bird species and range maps. Alongside Kenn Kaufman’s Lives Of North American Birds and David Allen Sibley’s The Sibley Guide to Bird Life & Behavior, NGS’s new Complete Birds Of North America forms an excellent trilogy of bird specie references for any birder’s library. |
