This, 2022, has been a curious year for books about birds and birding. Despite the absence of two major publishers—Lynx and HMH–from the new title publishing scene (hopefully not permanently), we were happily surprised to read and peruse many excellent books. But this is more than a coffee table book. Highly recommended.
This latest addition to the ABA State Field Guide series is sorely needed in places like Wakodahatchee. Though all the books in the series share common elements of design, structure, and photography, each one is written by a different author–a noted birder/writer who lives in and actively birds the state he is writing about.
5) Here is an obvious one…books. There’s a lot of good, crucial books published since the late 90′s.

Anyone who isn’t unified to your core value is going to stand out like a sore thumb. How can that happen if they’re not articulated? Consistency.
The NYC owls have little to do with the book in front of me except that it too is about birds and people. Donald Kroodsa’s “The Hour (or Two) Before the Dawn” is an adapted chapter from his book Listening to a Continent Sing (PUP, 2016). But–is that it?
Jeff Masson's new book didn't cause me to unravel, but I did learn a lot about our friends and coevolvers, Canis familiaris. This Masson book ( here are all of them) is for Benjy, who was supposed to be a service dog but who was, shall we say, less than enthusiastic about the career choice that was made for him.
