    Synopsis
    Must-See Birds of the Pacific Northwest is a lively, practical guide that helps readers discover 85 of the region's most extraordinary birds. Each bird profile includes notes on what they eat, where they migrate from, and where to find them in Washington and Oregon. Profiles also include stunning color photographs of each bird. Birds are grouped by what they are known for or where they are most likely to be found--like beach birds, urban birds, colorful birds, and killer birds. This is an accessible guide for casual birders, weekend warriors, and families looking for an outdoor experience. Eight easy-going birding weekends, including stops in Puget Sound, the Central Washington wine country, and the Klamath Basin, offer wonderful getaway ideas and make this a must-have guide for locals and visitors alike., The Pacific Northwest is a great place for birding. You can find Western Grebes dancing on water, or hear the Pacific Wren's song cascade through a mossy forest with the comprehensive guide Must-See Birds of the Pacific Northwest .

      A+ Seller. Received a great offer and snapped it up. The book arrived with more of it complete than I anticipated! The book was in excellent condition as well. The only comments I have was that the book was put in a bubble wrap instead of USPS Media mail. The bubble wrap tends to dog ear books and doesn't protect as well as Media Mail. Also, there wasn't any description or much pictures of the book so I had to ask the seller for details. To their credit, they answered swiftly and with pictures.

      Book arrived quickly from seller. Item was in condition as described by seller. However, there are profuse pencil markings throughout. Packaged so book was protected. Great value for money. Delighted with purchase. Would buy from seller again.
