This handsome keepsake and record book for dedicated birders of the U.S. and Canada, organized by bird taxonomy, offers blanks for dates, locations, and details of species sightings. Every birder keeps a life list—a personal record of each new species as it is observed—and this beautiful blank book offers the perfect way to do so, with room for dates, locations, and personal notes, encompassing a lifetime of bird-watching adventures. Organized to match ornithological taxonomy, with graceful illustrations of common species, occasional text by renowned birding expert Noah Strycker, and an index for easy navigation, this journal makes the mission of keeping a life list all the more convenient and rewarding. Complementing National Geographic's best-selling birding field guides, National Geographic Birder's Life List & Journal is the ideal accessory and gift for birders of all ages and at all levels of experience.
