Nevada Birds

Nevada is a tremendous place to learn about and experience bird life, with a list topping 500 and iconic species like Western Grebe, Clark's Nutcracker, Phainopepla, and state bird Mountain Bluebird. The majority of the Silver State is located in the Great Basin, which is an arid plateau interspersed with several small mountain ranges running north to south. In the low-lying Mojave Desert, there are open-country species like Verdin, Greater Roadrunner, and Sagebrush Sparrow. Birds are so ubiquitous that they can serve as an entry point into nature study, and it helps to get acquainted with the most representative species in a given area. The portable reference Nevada Birds is a great tool for this, as it features beautiful illustrations of 140 common and familiar species as well as an ecoregion map showing over 20 bird-finding hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and birders who wish to sharpen their bird identification skills and peer more deeply into birds' fascinating lives. Made in the USA.
