Casey is co-author of just-released Bird Feathers: A Guide to North American Species. Finally, a field guide dedicated solely to the identification of feathers! Richly illustrated with nearly 500 color photographs, this one-of-a-kind field guide explains how to use feather type and shape as well as color to identify the species a particular feather came from. Learn how a feather’s design lends insight into bird physiology, flight styles and wing shape.
Ranges, wing types, and feather measurements are given for the 397 birds covered, along with photographs of representative feathers. This is a valuable, information-packed resource for educators, biologists, and nature lovers, and an absolute must-have for avid birders.
