About the book >.>.> Nearly all of us, when wandering the park, the riverbank, the seashore, or our favorite path through the woods, have at some point looked down and discovered a feather. And nearly every one of us has for some reason picked that feather up and marveled at it in a quiet way. That reason, it seems, is both timeless and universal: since the age of our early hominid ancestors, we have been drawn to feathers as symbols of something powerful and mysteri ous. That draw still holds us: the child triumphantly catching a feather that's been tossed about on the wind, or the older couple who pick one up, dust it off, and lift it to the sky to examine its beauty, awed by its function. People all over the world have always loved birds, and today birding skill and enthusiasm continue to grow. Over the years we have heard the same longing arise again and again: that there be a common, comprehensive resource not for identifying a bird itself, but for identifying a bird long gone from the feeder, the park, or the creek by the feather.

Add to basketOctavo, paperback,358 pp.,colour photographs, maps. This guide teaches birders to use the characteristics of wing types and feather morphology to identify feathers - not only by species but also by their place on the bird's body. The introductory chapters give a detailed overview of the feather - how feathers developed, the parts of a single feather, and the variety of types of feathers on a bird. In the feather identification section, over 400 colour photographs show feather samples from 379 bird species from all over North America. Along with the wing type of the species and a map showing its range, several types of feathers are included for each bird; each feather is labelled with its type and its size.
