Summary: A fantastic book for the beginner
Review: I bought this book without any prior knowledge of birding and it has helped so much. It is clear and concise, covers a whole range of topics (including different seeds and homemade recipes and birdhouse plans), and provides information about many of the more common species of birds.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This one's a keeper!
Review: This book is extremely reader friendly. I find myself looking it through it frequently and finding something new and useful each time. It's set up in such a way to make finding what you're looking for very easy. Great projects for birdfeeding. I love this book!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun, easy to read, unique ideas.
Review: This book is great for the beginner bird-watcher or an old pro. The bird illustrations are clear and amazingly accurate. In addition, the author provides bird attracting basics and includes "recipes" that can be prepared as a family activity to provide a learning experience for children.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Couldn't be better--absolutely wonderful!!!
Review: This book is loaded with practical info. about the most prevalent back-yard birds, including the type of food they like, nesting preferences etc., as well as key elements of their behavior. There are many wonderful suggestions for attracting birds and detailed instructions for implementing them, including wonderful & fun recipes. This is what the Audabon Backyard Bird Garden book should have been but isn't--so buy this one instead--useful, fun to read as well as to implement, wonderfully organized, and visually very attractive--a real winner!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Attracting Birds Made Simple
Review: This colorful book is full of many ideas for attracting birds and keeping them interested in your backyard. There are many books on this subject, but this book is exceptional.

Sally Roth's explanations of how to go about attracting feathered friends are easy to understand and further made easy by the many illustrations.

I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in birds and their unique habits.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great for Gardeners as Well as Birders
Review: This is a beautifully illustrated book that contains great information for gardeners as well as birders. The information about the various flowers, trees, and shrubs that attract birds is very useful. Instructions for building bird baths, water pools, shelters, and other bird attractions are included. The descriptions of the birds and their behavior make the book a marvelous reference. Well done!! A wealth of information and a delight to read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Something for everyone ...
Review: Whether you're a birder or a gardener, or like me, a little of both, you'll love this book! I'm a novice birder and I bought this book hoping to find ideas about feeding and gardening for birds. I found what I was looking for and then some. This book has refreshing ideas, is user-friendly, humorous and practical. You'll learn interesting facts about some of our most common birds, identifying them, attracting them and how to landscape to keep them coming back. This is truly one of the most delightful books I've read this year. In fact, I've purchased additional copies as gifts for family members. It's definitely a book to keep in your library to refer to over-and-over again. It's A-to-Z reference and color illustrations are extremely helpful. Ms. Roth has done a superb job.
