Hello Everyone, Forgive the shameless self-promotion, but I thought some people might be interested to know about a forthcoming waterfowl book authored by my dad, Guy Baldassarre, who was a professor of ornithology and wildlife management at SUNY ESF until his death almost two years ago. Ducks, Geese, and Swans of North America was the go-to reference for North American waterfowl, but hadn’t been updated since the late 70s. Now there is a beautiful brand new edition that will be released in mid-October! You can pre-order on Amazon:
