Waders and seabirds, waterfowl, nightjars and owls, hummingbirds, thrushes and mimic thrushes, warblers, grosbeaks, tanagers, larks, blackbirds, sparrows, and finches all thrive in the various ecosystems of the Gulf Coast and swirl in and out with the seasons. Featuring 175 color photographs by nature photographer Brian K. Miller and essays by natural history columnist and lecturer William R. Fontenot, Birds of the Gulf Coast depicts the mystery and majesty of these beautiful creatures and highlights the importance of the region to the birds' conservation." "Together with Fontenot's essays, these photographs convey the luxuriant abundance that characterizes bird life of the Gulf Coast. This is a book that will inspire seasoned birders and novices alike to explore the region's woodlands, marshes, and beaches and discover for themselves the avian riches that await."--Jacket.
