Regularly observing bird feeders in Texas is a great way to get acquainted with common birds and learn more about their habits and fascinating life histories. It’s so easy to get lost in the comings and goings of such regular visitors as Carolina Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, White-winged Doves, Harris’s Sparrows, and Red-bellied Woodpeckers. Attracting a wide variety of birds doesn’t happen by accident—the right feeder setup goes a long way. To help enhance your feeding station, we’ve created this portable reference, which features beautifully illustrated profiles of 40 familiar feeder birds of Texas, each annotated with notes on species’ habitats and behaviors. Also included is an overview of feeder types and recommended foods for attracting each species. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is a terrific companion for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, and homeowners who wish to sharpen their identification skills and forge deeper connections with the Texas birds that readily seek bird feeders. Made in the USA.

[May 15, 2017] The last thing you want to carry on a hike is a heavy bird book. Save the weight for trail snacks. The All About Birds Pocket Guide Series brings 15 new birding titles published in collaboration with Waterford Press and the Cornell Lab Publishing Group. The pocket guides are light, thin and easy to slip in a pocket or pack. The guides offer detailed species information, photos, illustrations, and maps. The titles cover a wide range of topics for everyone who is curious about birds — from Birding 101 to Nests & Eggs of North American Backyard Birds. As a birdwatcher and a duck hunter, I like the Dabbling and Diving Ducks series for quick identification. There's also Sea Ducks and Others if you're into sea kayaking and want to ID birds. -Pete Zimowsky / GetOutdoorsNorthwest
