Product Description 105 color photos, 7 x 9 Complete life cycle and behavior of a favorite backyard visitor Full-color images from leading outdoor photographers Praise for Stackpoles Wild Bird Guides "Although the books are packed with information, the writing is clear and direct and accessible to bird watchers at every level. . . ." Even those intimately familiar with the birds will find a great deal of new information here, and those who have only a passing acquaintance with them will find these books a valuable resource and a pleasure to read. The photographs, chosen to illustrate plumages and behaviors, are uniformly excellent, and many of them are stunning. . . . This sixth book in the Wild Bird Guides series offers a detailed look at all aspects of this popular species, including communication, migration, diet, nesting, brooding, and the hummingbirds unique method of flight, all illustrated in brilliant color photographs. Review "Irresistible to bird-watchers and nature lovers." -- Booklist, 4/1/98 "It is hard to categorize these books. They are detailed life histories, not quite monographs but far more than typical one-species books for general audiences. If they were larger, and hardback, they would be coffee-table books, too well-written and too informative to be merely pretty picture books. Whatever they should be called, they are successful and should be read. I look forward to others in the series." -- Eirik A. T. Blom Bird Watchers Digest, March/April 98 About the Author Robert Sargent conducts popular seminars throughout the country on the Ruby-throated Hummingbird and has been recognized by the American Ornithologists' Union as an authority on the species. He lives in Trussville, Alabama.
