I reach for this, and the other 2 books in the series, again and again. Recently, someone asked me, "Have all the Red-winged Black Birds migrated?" Here is the answer I found, "Sometime in late July or early August you will suddenly realize that the Red-winged Blackbirds are no longer on their breeding ground. In fact, the chances are that you will not see a Redwing for the last month of the summer, for this is the time when they join other Redwings in secluded marshes and go through their molt.

I absolutely loved this book and found it fascinating. I have developed a love of backyard birds and can't read enough about them. Watching their behaviors while making their nests, raising their little ones and parenting the juveniles has been so interesting. It is amazing that any birds survive with so many odds stacked against them and so many predators. This book gave me so much extra knowledge that I was yearning for about specific breeds of birds. Can't wait to read Volume II.

Great reference with much more detailed knowledge than a standard field guide.
