In a single year, 25 million people will travel specifically to observe and photograph wild birds, spending 18.1 billion dollars on trips, equipment, and publications. And this dedicated population continues to grow each year.
Now, National Geographic offers novice to advanced birders and photographers a sturdy, easy-to-carry guide packed with the information they will need to take their best wild bird photographs. Author Rulon Simmons, a 30-year birder and award-winning photographer, joins Bates Littlehales, a 40-year National Geographic photographer specialising in birds, to offer specifics on finding and photographing birds, whether in the backyard or in the nation's stunning national parks.
Includes comprehensive information with full-color images on the right films and lenses to use; the best time of day to shoot; stalking, luring, and "posing" birds; range maps and birding hotspots; and a complete index. This excellent companion to National Geographic's #1 selling 'National Geographic Field Guide To The Birds Of North America' is the only book photographers will need to capture stunning images of wild birds.
