The National Audubon Society warns that bird populations in the Western Hemisphere are declining, and research indicates that North America today is home to almost three billion fewer birds than North America of 50 years ago. This means that roughly one in four birds have disappeared in the past half century. Now is an especially good time to add Earley's informative and practical guide for tempting birds to backyard feedersâand identifying them once they get thereâto library collections. Earley gives lighthearted instruction on designing bird-friendly gardens, preparing natural foods, outsmarting the gluttonous squirrels and the homicidal cats in your neighborhood, and helping your bird guests avoid crashing into the kitchen window. Detailed building plans cover window shelf, mesh, roofed platform, and fruit feeders; readers will be encouraged to see what can be constructed from old pine board scraps and a handful of common nails. This guide, filled with richly colorful photos, is enthusiastically recommended for birders, bird watchers, and anyone else who cares about birds' role in our precariously fragile environment.
