Description

Missouri is home to a diverse avian population. Over 400 bird species have been spotted in the state at one time or another. In this compact guide, 83 species of birds have been selected as birds that will commonly be seen each year in Missouri. Each two-page account includes color illustrations of the bird, fascinating facts and information to aid with identification. The accounts also feature photographs of each bird's egg, images of similar birds, and a range map.
