AlbakiReads Editorial

Bird identification with a comic edge

Aaron Reynolds pairs bird illustrations with irreverent captions in a humorous take on the field-guide format. The book presents more than 200 birds, using monochrome plumage art alongside selected works by John James Audubon, with modern-life advice and field notes woven into the mix. Its combination of bird imagery and cheeky commentary makes identification part of a broader comic conceit, rather than a strictly practical guide to species.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Birders who enjoy humorous, unconventional takes on nature books
  • Fans of the Effin’ Birds account and its irreverent captions
  • Readers interested in bird illustrations, including Audubon’s work, presented with contemporary humor

Book overview

A compact, comprehensive, and very silly field guide featuring more than 200 of the rudest birds on earth--from the creator of the Webby Award-winning hit Instagram account!

Effin' Birds is the most eagerly anticipated new volume in the grand and noble profession of nature writing and bird identification. Sitting proudly alongside Sibley, Kaufman, and Peterson, this book contains more than 150 pages crammed full of classic, monochrome plumage art paired with the delightful but dirty aphorisms (think "I'm going to need more booze to deal with this week") that made the Effin' Birds feed a household name. Also included in its full, Technicolor glory is John James Audubon's most beautiful work matched with modern life advice.

Including never-before-seen birds, insults, and field notes, this guide is a must-have for any effin' fan or birder.
