Nests and Signs of Common Urban Birds: Eastern US: Cornell All About Birds Series

The many rewards of birding include locating and observing nests—and possibly developing chicks—in their natural environment. This guide is a convenient primer on the basic types of nest structures. Here you’ll find information on the breeding season of common urban birds, the typical nesting habitat for each species, how many eggs a nest may contain, what the eggs look like, and more. Also included are tips for finding nests and recognizing nesting-related behaviors. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this guide support continued educational activities by The Cornell Lab of Ornithology. Made in the USA.
