Overview

Louisiana contains around 470 species of birds. Some of them are with us year round, and some visit us at certain times of the year. We won't try to cover them all, but we will look at some of the more familiar and interesting species. This book will cover most backyard birds seen in your yards, trees, bushes, at your feeders, and more. Some of these birds you will recognize immediately, and you may see them in your yard daily. Some will be seasonal visitors and may be birds you associate with particular times of the year. Some birds are signs of spring, and some are signs of winter. Whatever your interest in birds, you will find this book to be a helpful resource for the birds you see in Louisiana. Now we won't look at the more aquatic birds like ducks and geese, even though they may be in your backyard. Many people who live in Louisiana do live on the water, but we will look at the ones you are more likely to see in the trees and on the grass. I am in northeast Louisiana, but most of these birds in this book can be seen all over the state. Some birds are only found in one half of the state, and that could be north vs south or east vs west. So, you may have to travel a short distance before some are seen. As we approach the Gulf of Mexico, many shore birds appear, but we will get to those in another book. In this book, you will find great color pictures, detailed descriptions, information on sounds, habitat, diet, behavior, migration, and more. I hope you will use this to identify the birds you see and enjoy those birds even more. This book has more detailed descriptions than any other I have ever seen. Birds that were added to the 2nd edition are: Blue Grosbeak Eurasian Collared-Dove Inca Dove Louisiana Waterthrush Mississippi Kite Painted Bunting Prothonotary Warbler Rose-breasted Grosbeak Scarlet Tanager Swallow-tailed Kite White-winged Dove Yellow-billed Cuckoo Yellow-headed Blackbird
