Audubon Society of Minneapolis, Tuesday, March 8th meeting, 7:00 p.m. at Brookdale Library
Please note: this meeting date and place is a change from the regular monthly meeting Come and hear Richard Crossley discuss his new book, The Crossley ID Guide: Eastern Birds, which has recently been released. This stunningly illustrated book from acclaimed birder and photographer Richard Crossley revolutionizes birding by providing the first real-life approach to identification. Whether you are a beginning birder or an expert birder or somewhere in-between, the Crossley ID Guide will vastly improve your ability to identify birds. Unlike other guides that provide isolated individual photographs or illustrations of birds, the Crossley Guide features large, life-like scenes for each species. These beautiful compositions show how a bird’s appearance changes with distance and gives equal emphasis to the characteristics experts use to identify birds: size, structure and shape, behavior, probability, and color. Essential for all birders, the guide will make new birders of many people who have despaired of using traditional guides. Directions: Take Hwy 94W to Shingle Creek Parkway South, exit 34, which takes you across the highway. The library and service center will be on your right, across the street from Target. There is ample parking. The library address is 6125 Shingle Creek Parkway South. The author will autograph books, and there will be a limited number of copies for sale.
