rlynnparsons's review against another edition
4.0
The illustrations are wonderful and the descriptions of all the birds are very fun to read! There are a lot of fun facts that I hadn't known before. I also appreciated that the book didn't focus just on the backyard birds of the northeast, which I think is common with backyard bird books. It was nice to learn about the chestnut-backed chickadee, the mountain chickadee, varied thrush, and the Florida scrub jay, which I didn't realize is a threatened bird unique to the scrub land in Florida. There is a very good description of types of bird food and ways to feed birds at the end. It was also neat to see a little shout-out to Project FeederWatch at the end too!
