Sibley will discuss “Sibley Birds East,” a completely revised and updated resource for all birders seeking an authoritative guide in a portable format to carry into the field.
Compact and comprehensive, the guide features 650 bird species, plus regional populations, found east of the Rocky Mountains. Entries include illustrations – more than 4,601 in total – with descriptive captions pointing out the most important field marks. Each entry has been updated to include the most current information concerning frequency, nesting, behavior, food and feeding, voice description and key identification features. Also included are more than 601 updated maps drawn from information contributed by 110 regional experts across the continent, and showing winter, summer, year-round, migration and rare ranges.
Sibley is the author and illustrator of the series of successful guides to nature that bear his name, including The New York Times best-seller “The Sibley Guide to Birds.” He has contributed art and numerous articles to birding and science publications, and wrote and illustrated a syndicated column for The New York Times. He is the recipient of the Roger Tory Peterson Award for Lifetime Achievement from the American Birding Association and the Linnaean Society of New York's Eisenmann Medal.
