Birds and Marshes of the Chesapeake Bay Country

Among the cattail and wild rice, the cordgrass and loblolly, from the countryside north of Baltimore to the windswept beaches of the Atlantic are the imperiled canvasback, the boat-tailed grackle, the secretive king rail, the fragile egret, and even the evasive snowy owl. This is an indispensable book for bird-watchers in the Chesapeake Bay region.
