Birds of the Puget Sound Region: Coast to Cascades is a pocket-sized photographic guide featuring over 260 species of birds. Designed for beginning and experienced birders, this new edition expands the best-selling regional guide, Birds of the Puget Sound Region (now out of print) to include all of western Washington, from the Coast to the Cascades. The 450 new photographs are state of the art digital images, mostly by Brian E. Small. Lead author Dennis Paulson, ornithologist and regional expert on birding, has re-written and updated this guide. Eleven habitats are described in six pages. Species pages are organized in our best-selling format: Description, Similar Species, Status and Habitat, Behavior, Voice and Did You Know. A Quick Guide to Local Birds, at the front of the book, provides an easy reference to the pages that provide a complete description of the different birds.
