5 out of 5 stars Info On Hummingbirds   October 7, 2008
A wonderful book on the wonderful hummingbird. I am more informed on the little hummers now. I love seeing them visit our oudoor feeder.

Great photos, trivia, information about how to attract the hummers and a lot of solid
information about the different species and much more. Also has nice section on which flowers
are good for attracting hummers . Price is right and it is a good resource as well.
You will not be disappointed. In addition it is easy to read.

5 out of 5 stars A BOOK WELL WORTH OWNING - VERY HELPFUL!   July 4, 2007
 9 out of 9 found this review helpful

This work, like most of those by Donald and Lillian Stokes is well written, informative, useful and simply a joy to read. The subject here, of course, is Hummingbirds. The authors also do give us several very nice pages (6) addressing orioles, a common visitor to feeders. The photographs in this book are quite good and the authors actually tell and show us their technique of photographing these amazing creatures.

Probably the most important chapter in this work is the one covering the types, maintenance and placement of the hummingbird feeder. Some of the other subjects well covered are creating Hummingbird habitat, Hummingbird gardening, nesting habits, flight behavior, amazing facts, Hummingbird myths and very importantly, the identification of these little creatures which are found here in North America. Each species is given due coverage and no area of the country is left out. I enjoyed the section devoted to the various kinds of flowers which are Hummingbird friendly. The Stokes have given us specific information here, seldom found in other volumes.

As to the identification of the various species found here, the authors have given us a great over view of the eight major species, their range, habits, migration patterns and some wonderful photographs to help in identification. The hardcore birder will of course want additional field guides, as several species, usually found in small pockets along our southern border are not covered. This is not major flaw though, as most individuals that are very much into the hobby of birding, already have a trunk full of guides. The authors have also included a very nice section on other resources, books, videos, companies that provide feeders, etc.

All in all, this is a very nice book to own and certainly one that you will want to add to your collection
