The vast, sweeping plains of Iowa host spectacular congregations of migratory waterfowl as well as iconic breeding birds like Bobolinks, Henslow's Sparrow's, Western Meadowlarks, Sandhill Crane, and American White Pelicans. Throughout its tallgrass prairies, dense forests, floodplains, pothole wetlands, and river valleys, over 425 bird species are either permanent residents, regular breeders, or annual migrants in the Hawkeye State. On account of birds' ubiquity, they are a fitting entry point for those looking to learn more about ecosystems and how they function. It helps, then, to have a portable reference on hand to cut through the clutter and focus on the most familiar species. The beautifully illustrated collection Iowa Birds features 140 common species and includes an ecoregion map showing over 20 bird-finding hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel pocket folding guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, and birders looking to sharpen their bird identification skills and peer more closely into the fascinating lives of Iowa's birds. Made in the USA.
