From the rolling Berkshire Mountains and river valleys of the west to
the coastal eastern plains, dunes, and scrub forests of Cape Cod,
Massachusetts is a birder's paradise. Nearly 500 species have been
recorded in the Bay State making it one of the "birdiest" places in the
nation. Massachusetts is rich in protected and preserved habitats,
including 15 national parks and 143 state parks. Written by expert
birder Wayne R. Petersen and filled with crisp, gorgeous color
photography by Brian E. Small, the American Birding Association Field
Guide to Birds of Massachusetts is the perfect companion for anyone
learning more about the natural history and diversity of the
commonwealth's birds and when and where to see them.
