Birds and Marshes of the Chesapeake Bay Country

A remarkably diverse population of birdlife, migratory and indigenous, lives in that region known as the Chesapeake Bay country. It is one of the finest locations on the eastern seaboard for observing wild birds.Among the cattail and wild rice, the cordgrass and loblolly, from the countryside north of Baltimore to the windswept beaches of the Atlantic are the imperiled canvasback, the boat-tailed grackle, the secretive king rail, the fragile egret, and even the evasive snowy owl. This is an indispensable book for bird-watchers in the Chesapeake Bay region.Meanley, Brooke is the author of 'Birds and Marshes of the Chesapeake Bay Country' with ISBN 9780870332074 and ISBN 0870332074.
