The boreal and mixed forests of the North Woods have the highest breeding bird density in North America. And let's not forget the amazing winter birds that make the northern woods their "Arctic Riviera," spending the winter in our "balmy" south. This handy field guide features more than 200 bird species found in the North Woods of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ontario. The innovative format makes field identification a snap, and fieldmark arrows point out the best distinguishing characteristics. Fascinating natural history facts, range maps for some species, and more than 300 photos create a perfect guide to carry with you.
