520    "Birding is among the most popular outdoor activities--
       especially in the Midwest, where hundreds of different 
       bird species can be seen and observed. Now is the perfect 
       time to join the fun and let our feathered friends 
       astonish and inspire you. Award-winning author, naturalist,
       and wildlife photographer Stan Tekiela has written best-
       selling bird identification guides for every Midwestern 
       state. In Stan Tekiela's Birding for Beginners: Midwest, 
       he provides the information you need to become a skilled 
       birder in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, 
       Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South 
       Dakota, and Wisconsin. The first section of the book 
       presents "how to" information. Learn the basics of bird 
       feeders. Get to know your birdseed. Create a bird-friendly
       yard--and even make your own bird food with do-it-yourself
       recipes. The book's second section is an identification 
       guide, featuring 55 Midwestern birds that are most likely 
       to be seen at your backyard feeder or near your home. The 
       species are organized by color, making it simple to 
       identify what you see. If you spot a yellow bird, go to 
       the yellow section to discover what it is. Each bird gets 
       a full-page photograph with notations about key field 
       marks, or identification characteristics. The full-color 
       photos are paired with information ranging from the bird's
       nest and eggs to favorite foods, as well as Stan's 
       fascinating naturalist notes. Give birding a try, and get 
       started with the guidance of an expert. You'll be amazed 
       by how much joy birds can bring, and you'll have a 
       lifetime to enjoy them."--Amazon.
