Description
Birdwatching is for everyone. No other outdoor pursuit yields so much knowledge of nature's ways with so little effort-if one knows what to look for. Best Easy Bird Guide Cape Cod opens the world of birding to the novice and expert in this complete guide to getting the most out of birding in Cape Cod. Best Easy Bird Guide Cape Cod includes sections on birding technology, equipment, identification techniques, birding "by ear," where to view birds, field guides, optics, and other essentials to get birders of all skill levels into the field to identify birds throughout Cape Cod. Especially valuable are descriptions of habitat, feeding, nesting, and migration-informing the reader not only about what kind of bird is on the other end of the binoculars, but what it is up to as well.
Includes:
GPS coordinates for each species of the top three to five locations where you're likely to see the bird and what time of year is best for this
