Overview

With a rich and varied patchwork of grasslands, hardwood forests, wetlands, and mountains, Kentucky hosts a diverse assemblage of plants and animals, including Bee Balm, Blazing Stars, White-tailed Deer, Virginia Opossum, Sandhill Crane, and numerous species of salamanders. To better acquaint you with the natural history of the Bluegrass State, we have packaged together three portable references—Birds, Trees & Wildflowers, and Wildlife—in an attractive acetate bag. Each guide features beautiful illustrations of over 100 common species, as well as an ecoregion map showing top bird-finding, botanical, or wildlife-viewing hotspots. Laminated for durability, these lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guides comprise a comprehensive three-pack for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, botanists, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to learn more about Kentucky’s flora and fauna. Made in the USA.
