Something for everyone ... April 17, 2000 98 out of 98 found this review helpful
Whether you're a birder or a gardener, or like me, a little of both, you'll love this book! I'm a novice birder and I bought this book hoping to find ideas about feeding and gardening for birds. I found what I was looking for and then some. This book has refreshing ideas, is user-friendly, humorous and practical. You'll learn interesting facts about some of our most common birds, identifying them, attracting them and how to landscape to keep them coming back. This is truly one of the most delightful books I've read this year. In fact, I've purchased additional copies as gifts for family members. It's definitely a book to keep in your library to refer to over-and-over again. It's A-to-Z reference and color illustrations are extremely helpful. Ms. Roth has done a superb job.
This one's a keeper! October 31, 1999 42 out of 45 found this review helpful
This book is extremely reader friendly. I find myself looking it through it frequently and finding something new and useful each time. It's set up in such a way to make finding what you're looking for very easy. Great projects for birdfeeding. I love this book!
Great for Gardeners as Well as Birders September 22, 1999 51 out of 52 found this review helpful
This is a beautifully illustrated book that contains great information for gardeners as well as birders. The information about the various flowers, trees, and shrubs that attract birds is very useful. Instructions for building bird baths, water pools, shelters, and other bird attractions are included. The descriptions of the birds and their behavior make the book a marvelous reference. Well done!! A wealth of information and a delight to read.
Fun, easy to read, unique ideas. June 21, 1999 24 out of 25 found this review helpful
This book is great for the beginner bird-watcher or an old pro. The bird illustrations are clear and amazingly accurate. In addition, the author provides bird attracting basics and includes "recipes" that can be prepared as a family activity to provide a learning experience for children.
A fantastic book for the beginner February 2, 1999 16 out of 16 found this review helpful
I bought this book without any prior knowledge of birding and it has helped so much. It is clear and concise, covers a whole range of topics (including different seeds and homemade recipes and birdhouse plans), and provides information about many of the more common species of birds.
