How to go from a beginner to an expert birder

Better Birding reveals the techniques expert birders use to identify a wide array of bird species in the field--quickly and easily. Featuring hundreds of stunning photos and composite plates throughout, this book simplifies identification by organizing the birds you see into groupings and offering strategies specifically tailored to each group. Skill building focuses not just on traditional elements such as plumage, but also on creating a context around each bird, including habitat, behavior, and taxonomy--parts so integral to every bird's identity but often glossed over by typical field guides. Critical background information is provided for each group, enabling you to approach bird identification with a wide-angle view, using your eyes, brain, and binoculars more strategically, resulting in a more organized approach to learning birds.

Better Birding puts the thrill of expert bird identification within your reach.

Great for kids!
Color: White
I bought this stylus for the kids to use with their iPads, and it definitely gets the job done. It connects easily, charges fast, and works smoothly for drawing, writing, and playing around on apps. The palm rejection is a big plus—it makes it a lot easier for them to use without messing up what they’re doing. It’s also pretty responsive, which I wasn’t necessarily expecting at this price. Overall, it served its purpose well. If you’re looking for something affordable and functional for kids (or even light everyday use), this is a solid option.

Rock-Solid Apple Pencil Replacement for iPad Mini
Color: White
Despite the box arriving pretty beat up inside the Amazon packaging, the pen itself was in perfect condition and it’s been outstanding. It works flawlessly with my iPad Mini (Gen 7, A17). The physical on/off button is a standout feature for me; the tactile click is far more satisfying and reliable than the touch-sensitive controls found on other pens. I primarily use this stylus while flying, taking notes in the air, and it performs exactly how I need it to. The magnetic attachment is especially impressive because it’s strong enough to add real security inside my iPad case. Even in rough air, I don’t have to worry about it getting knocked loose. I previously used a pencil from another brand that worked fine overall, but the weak (or nonexistent) magnetic hold was a dealbreaker. This one solves that problem completely and when it came time to buying a new pencil because I lost the old one, this was my choice. If you’re looking for a dependable, well-built Apple Pencil replacement with a solid magnetic connection and a satisfying physical control, this is an easy recommendation. You also CANNOT go wrong with the price!

Perfect stylus for my iPad.
Color: White
This stylus works great! It was easy to set up, and is perfect for my needs. The pen is the perfect weight and seems to be made of good material. I anticipate it will last a long time. The pen came charged and I still haven’t charged it. If you like using a stylus on an iPad, this one feels just like using a pencil. I like to write, so this has been a great choice.

Great product!
Color: White
I have now purchased two of these (I lost the first one) and they are absolutely a worthwhile purchase. Nicely packaged, easy set up, works great! Battery life is great and the pencil charged fairly quickly as well. Size of the pencil is wonderful, easy to hold and grip. Quality is great as well. 5 stars from me, hopefully I don’t lose this one! 🤣

Works amazingly as intended, good value
Color: White, Color: White
Writes perfectly on my ipad. Worked immediately on my Bluetooth, didn’t have to connect. Holds charge very well from what I can tell. I finished a 10 hour long drawing process without it dying. I’ll update if anything changes. Comes with extra nibs.
