Overview

A large state that is forested in over half of its land area, Pennsylvania is an excellent place to observe and learn about wildlife. The hardwood forests that dominate the central part of the state are home to Ruffed Grouse (the state bird) and White-tailed Deer (the state mammal). Scarlet Tanagers and Great Crested Flycatchers breed among the maples, beeches, and oaks in spring and summer. Upland in the Appalachian Mountains are Elk and Black Bears, as well as Eastern Hemlock (the state tree). To better acquaint you with the natural history of the Keystone State, we have packaged together three portable references—Birds, Trees & Wildflowers, and Wildlife—in an attractive acetate bag. Each guide features beautiful illustrations of approximately 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 over 300 representative species typical of Pennsylvania. Made in the USA.
