![]() Rating: - Bird BookGood book, has a lot of useful information and tips on how to attact birds to your home feeders. Could be a bit more expansive, but pictures are great. All-in-all a helpful book. Won't know until spring whether the tips to attract the birds works or not. Rating: - Good Book, Slightly Misleading TitleThis book is subtitled "The complete guide to attracting, identifying, and understanding your feeder birds."

It contains only the most common birds, the Tufted Titmouse, Cardinals, Black-capped and Carolina Chickadees, etc. It also contained helpful information as to what common birds favor what types of feeders and provided information on some bird behavior and how to buy binoculars. ...
