Spectacular full-color photographs with startling clarity uniquely capture the allure of birding. As much about birders as birds themselves, The Little Book of Birding is a joyous celebration of our feathered friends and the folds who follow them. Close-ups of winged creatures, from a fat white-tailed ptarmigan to an inquisitive bluebird and elegant snow geese in flight, are complemented by photographer Harrison's delightful commentary on this popular hobby. This gem of a book shares the wonder of a birder--armed solely with telescope or camera--observing their subjects in their natural settings, and will be enjoyed by novice and professional alike.
