About this book
" What Birds Eat enriches our understanding of birds overall. " ? The Birding Wire
- Explains bird physiology and natural diets, including detailed profiles of their food preferences
- Robust selection of photographs and illustrations
The more than 900 bird species in North America have natural diets ranging from seeds, foliage, nectar, and nuts to fish, insects, crustaceans, carrion, and mammals--and sometimes other birds! What Birds Eat explores the senses that birds depend on--sight, sound, odor, taste, and touch--and their food ingestion. Extensive feeding profiles then detail what various species eat naturally and how we can support those diets in backyards and feeders. What Birds Eat enriches our understanding, allowing us to engage more meaningfully with birds along the way.
