Some birds like tall trees, some prefer shrubs, some prefer to nest along streams, while others can be found in open fields.As the saying goes, the early bird catches the worm, which is why many birders head outdoors at dawn."Birds sleep at night and are starving in the morning, so they have to go out and eat.If you have your heart set on seeing many species, you'll have to admit the fact that birds are most vocal and energetic when the sun comes up, making them more straightforward to spot and recognize during those early hours.In the book, "Backyard Bird watcher's Bible, you will learn will learn to identify, feeds, attract and understand the birds in your backyard."Covered Topics:*Identifying 80+ Backyard Birds*Backyard Bird Watching Is a Breeze*Birdwatching Optics - The Best Way to Find Them*The Landscape Design for the Backyard Birdwatcher*The Backyard Birdwatcher's Guide to Attracting Hummingbirds to your Backyard*The Charming Little Robin in Your Backyard*Binoculars for Bird Watching - Three (3) Things You Should Know*10 Fun Ways to Get Kids Drawn to Birds and Bird Watching*American Goldfinch, Attracting (Drawing) and Feeding this Intelligent Bird*Why you should Embrace Dead Trees for Wild Birds*The step by step procedure to Making a Bird Feeder | DIY Homemade Plastic Bottle Bird FeederCLICK the below link to ORDER your copy!
