Songbirds of the West

Focusing on the rich avian diversity of the western United States, this book features over four dozen songbirds, many found in notable National Parks where the author has extensive experience. Personal encounters with species like the Black-capped Vireo and Vermilion Flycatcher are detailed, alongside observations from various locations including Great Sand Dunes and Yellowstone. Each bird's life history, behavior, and conservation status are explored, combining casual observations with scientific studies across the U.S., Mexico, and the West Indies.
