Overview

This is the long, catalog/marketing description of the product.The home of the World Series of Birding, New Jersey is one of the best places in the US to learn about and experience birds. The Garden State is nestled along the Atlantic Flyway, so coastal areas like Cape May serve as a stop-over points for waterfowl, raptors, shorebirds, and songbirds. There are also year-round residents like state bird American Goldfinch as well as local specialities like Saltmarsh Sparrow. The diverse of bird life is oftentimes dizzying, so it helps to have a resource on hand to cut through the clutter and focus on the most representative species. You can do this with the portable reference New Jersey Birds, which features beautiful illustrations of 140 common and familiar species and an ecoregion map showing over 20 birding hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is a great tool for educators, learners, naturalists, and birders to sharpen their bird identification skills and peer more closely into birds’ fascinating lives. Made in the USA.
