Book Reviews of Birds of New Jersey Field Guide

Book Review: Excellent Guide in Information, Layout & Photographs
Summary: 5 Stars

You can't help but become interested in attracting birds to your yard while reading this book. We homeschool our 3 kids and used this guide as a main source of information for our unit study. Stan's notes on each bird are excellent and the layout of this guide is so easy for all of our children to flip through as they try to identify the bird resting on the feeder.

We also love the "The Beginner's Guide to Birds - Eastern Region" by Stokes - because they give information on how to attract certain species to your yard with specific seed types, bathing habits, and bird houses. However, living in NJ, this guide by Stan Tekiela was much more useful for identification because of our locale. The photographs in both books are beautiful. The range maps in this NJ book are obviously more detailed to NJ and the Introduction section goes much more in depth on different types of Migration habits, why NJ is a great place to watch birds and the different types of nests birds build. This book contains 122 most common of the 440 species having been sighted in NJ. It also includes an illustration of a bird and it's basic body parts.

If I only had enough money for one book and I lived in NJ - this book would be it. I do however love combining it with Stokes' because they've helped us bring these beautiful creatures into our yard up close.
