AlbakiReads Editorial

A photographic reference to North American raptors

Pete Dunne’s guide brings together hawks, eagles, falcons, vultures, and other birds of prey in a format that pairs hundreds of color photographs with broad natural-history coverage. The images show raptors at close range as well as in flight and during activities including hunting, fighting, and nesting. Beyond species identification, the book addresses ecology, behavior, conservation, diet, and habitat, making it a wide-ranging reference to how these birds live. Its emphasis on both visual observation and context gives the volume a place between a field-identification aid and an illustrated overview of North American raptor life.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Birdwatchers building their knowledge of North American raptors
  • Nature readers interested in bird behavior, ecology, and conservation
  • Photograph-driven wildlife reference collectors

Book overview

A visually stunning, comprehensive resource on North America's birds of prey

Always a popular group of birds, raptors symbolize freedom and fierceness, and in Pete Dunne's definitive guide, these traits are portrayed in hundreds of stunning color photographs showing raptors up close, in flight, and in action--fighting, hunting, and nesting. These gorgeous photographs enhance the comprehensive, authoritative text, which goes far beyond identification to cover raptor ecology, behavior, conservation, and much more. In returning to his forte and his first love, Pete Dunne has crafted a benchmark book on raptors: the first place to turn for any question about these highly popular birds, whether it's what they eat, where they live, or how they behave.
