A Powerhouse of Information

Although the book is fairly small I found it to be packed with information that is appropriate for all ages. Jeff explains how he as a photographer catures the extraordinary images that illustrate the book but more importantly how the welfare of his subjects comes first. The book is extremely well organized using the different orders of birds and lists the habitat and range the birds are found in as well as information relating to the young. Various types of biological terms are used throughout the book accompanied with easy to understand definitions. Jeff also provides some interesting behavior observations about some of the species in his book. For example, a baby Grebe's first meal may consist of feathers. You'll have to read the book to find out why.

A slim but colorful book which narrows the focus to baby birds in Alaska, Hawaii and the West

Wildlife biologist/author Jeffrey Rich's lovely color close-ups of wild birds of all kinds is the centerpiece of Baby Birds, a slim but colorful book which narrows the focus to baby birds in Alaska, Hawaii and the West. Explanations of orders, habitats, range and clutch size accompany these bright, compelling photos. It's unusual to see baby birds featured for adult audiences: all ages will enjoy the presentation.
