Game Birds Of North America

by Leonard Lee Rue III

"For the hunter with gun, camera, or binoculars, here are complete details on 75 species of North American game birds - in a volume that is as beautiful as it is practical.. Waterfowl, upland birds, shore birds, and nuisance birds are covered in depth. For each species there is accurate and comprehensive information on size and appearance, distribution, communication, breeding and nesting, eggs and young; flight, migration, habits, food, life span, tracks and other signs, natural enemies, and quality as table fare. Here, too are 25 pages of spectacular bird paintings by nationally famous nature artist Douglas Allen. Giant full-page and double page reproductions in vivid color show many birds in their natural habitats. There are also 25 drawings by Mr. Allen, 75 photographs of game birds and 25 maps showing migration routes and distribution of various game birds throughout North America."
