Audubon Land Bird Guide (Nature • Field Guide) – 1949 Illustrated Hardcover

Why This Guide Still Works

Need a quick ID on that flash of feathers in your backyard? Richard H. Pough’s Audubon Land Bird Guide keeps it simple: full-color plates on one side, plain-language notes on the other.

More than 400 illustrations help you match field marks fast, while range maps and short descriptions tell you just enough—not a whole textbook’s worth. Toss it in a day-pack or keep it by the kitchen window; either way, you’ll reach for it often.

What’s Inside

• 400+ color images—organized by “what you notice first” (shape, size, color).
• Compact trim—8 × 5 in fits glove compartments and cargo pockets.
• Practical text—brief notes on song, habitat, and behavior.
• Audubon pedigree—sponsored by the National Audubon Society, so data stay reliable.
