The perfect journal for keen daily observation of the spectacular birds all around you

The perfect journal for keen daily observation of the spectacular birds all around you

Many birding journals are geared around a life list, which requires traveling far and wide to see rare birds. Evolutionary biologist Joan Strassmann advocates for a different kind of birding- slow birding, focused on the joys of birding right where you are and at your own pace.

This one-of-a-kind journal, filled with detailed sections for daily use, is the ideal companion for local and backyard birders. The Slow Birding Journal features-

Space for recording your observations of the birds you see Targeted prompts and questions to incorporate into your birding Advice and guidance on watching birds- what to look for and pay attention to

Detailed illustrations of several well-known birds, and blank pages to make your own illustrations

The best birding is where you are right now- in your backyard, your local parks, or on your favorite day hikes. This journal will lead you to a deeper understanding of the birds you see each day.
