A well-documented, beautifully photographed, year-long daily account of what common backyard bird species do and how their behaviors change over the course of a year. Guided by an experienced birder, you’ll know what to look for and how to attract and observe birds in your own backyard and by watching and chronicling how they behave, you’ll begin to understand them better. You’ll see how their actions change season to season, month to month, sometimes day to day. By peeking into their secret lives and unraveling the mysteries of their daily behavior you’ll find your bird-viewing pleasure enriched.
