"'Can birds smell?' 'Is this the same cardinal that was at my feeder last year?' 'Do robins "hear" worms?' In [this book], David Sibley answers the most frequently asked questions about the birds we see most often. This special, large-format volume is geared as much to nonbirders as it is to the out-and-out obsessed, covering more than two hundred species and including more than 330 new illustrations by the author"--Publisher marketing.

What It's Like to Be a Bird

Amanda Rocha

I am so happy with What It's Like to Be a Bird by David Allen Sibley! I have a collection of Sibley postcards already, so I was very excited to receive a free ARC of this Sibley book! Renowned ornithologist David Allen Sibley has so much to teach us about birds, and bird lovers will be impressed with this book. Written and illustrated by Sibley, this book is a work of art. The one thing I would change is that I wish the birds had been organized alphabetically, but that is just a small detail. I really liked the “what to do if…” section that provides practical advice on what to do when you encounter birds!
