Product Description
Product Description
"The Garden Bird Year" gives both birdwatchers and gardeners alike insights into how to attract both resident and visiting birds to the garden, and how to manage this precious space as a vital resource for birds. This beautifully illustrated book is an appealing and practical guide combining useful hands-on advice about how to maintain your garden, with fascinating information about bird behaviour and detailed descriptions of key species. Author Roy Beddard explains how to plan a range of garden habitats to accommodate the needs of birds in each season of the year. Topics covered in this book include bird behaviour and identification, water and nest sites, and deterring pests and predators. Illustrated throughout with David Daly's beautiful specially commissioned artwork and stunning photography by David Cottridge, this attractive and informative guide reveals everything the reader needs to know about how to make the most of garden birdlife throughout the year.

Format:Hardcover
I have been feeding the birds in my garden for almost a year now and have joined a couple of bird organisations, so I have already learnt a lot of what the book covers. If you are in the same situation then this book may not be for you. However, if you are a beginner, or have this book in mind for a beginner friend or child, then this book is quite simply the one to get, and at the price you can hardly go wrong. The colour drawings are very life-like and the photographs are beautiful and I can vouch that a lot of the advice given has already worked for me. It is also a wonderful coffee-table conversation piece that draws non-birders in to a subject that, let's face it, isn't exactly cool.

Format:Paperback
This is an excellent, easy to use guide for beginners of all ages,who enjoy watching birds in their garden and want to know a little more. I bought this copy as a birthday present for an 84 year old to accompany a bird feeding station. There are many more scholarly guides if the bird watching interest grows but this book is great for starters.....have used it with a 7 year old as well. Highly recommended
