Eastern Birds of Prey: A Guide to the Private Lives of Eastern Raptors

Very good used paperback. First edition, fourth printing (1990). B&W photographs.

Covering all major raptors found east of the Mississippi River (including eagles, hawks, owls, vultures, and kites), here is a book that not only aids in field identification, but details the whole life cycle of each species.

Written for beginning and advanced birders alike, Eastern Birds of Prey contains a wealth of uniquely accessible information on the often misunderstood and sometimes endangered "hunters of the air."
