A lush and mountainous gem in the Pacific Northwest, Oregon is a great place to observe and learn about birds, owing to the Beaver State's remarkable avian diversity -- over 550 species -- and varied terrain. Coastal Oregon's rocky and sand beaches are important for migratory shorebirds; offshore, seabirds can be seen in large congregations. The Cascade Mountains host conifer-dominated alpine forests where stand-outs like Williamson's Sapsucker, White-headed Woodpecker, and Gray-crowned Rosy-finch live. In the mountains' dry rain shadow to the east, a semi-desert region is home to Greater Sage-grouse and state bird Western Meadowlark. Waterfowl and Sandhill Cranes can be observed by the thousands along wetlands and lakes. Such a variety of birds can be as overwhelming as it is exciting, so it helps to have a portable reference on hand to cut through the clutter and focus on a smaller group of representative species. You can do this with the beautifully illustrated Oregon Birds, which features 140 common and familiar birds 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 closely into birds' fascinating lives. Made in the USA.
