Look around New York, and you'll probably see birds: wood ducks
swimming in Queens, a stalking black-crowned night-heron in
Brooklyn, great horned owls perching in the Bronx, warblers feeding
in Central Park, or Staten Island's purple martins flying to and
fro. You might spot hawks and falcons nesting on skyscrapers or
robins belting out songs from trees along the street. America's
largest metropolis teems with birdlife in part because it sits
within the great Atlantic flyway where migratory birds travel
seasonally between north and south. The Big Apple's miles of
coastline, magnificent parks, and millions of trees attract dozens
of migrating species every year and are also home year-round to
scores of resident birds. There is no better way to identify and
learn about New York's birds than with this comprehensive field
guide from New York City naturalist Leslie Day. Her book will
quickly teach you what each species looks like, where they build
their nests, what they eat, the sounds of their songs, what time of
year they appear in the city, the shapes and colors of their eggs,
and where in the five boroughs you can find them-which is often in
the neighborhood you call home. The hundreds of stunning
photographs by Beth Bergman and gorgeous illustrations by Trudy
Smoke will help you identify the ninety avian species commonly seen
in New York. Once you enter the world of the city's birds, life in
the great metropolis will never look the same.
