Montana is one of the great birding states, from sandhill cranes to prairie chickens and sage grouse. From 100,000 snow geese at a time on Freezeout Lake to western bluebirds, glossy ibis, white-tailed kites, crested caracaras, Iceland gulls, Carolina wrens, curve-billed thrashers, and hundreds of other song birds. Montana is the best place for both great birding and wildlife viewing. Many of the birding hot spots also have a wide variety of wildlife including elk, antelope, moose, and grizzly and black bears. Chuck Robbins has spent 20 years traveling the state birding and wildlife watching. Chuck has divided the state into six regions: Glacier Country, Southwest Montana, Central Montana, Yellowstone Country, Missouri River Country, and Southeast Montana. Chuck describes each of the birding locations, the key birds, the best seasons for birding, and the area description along with driving directions and GPS coordinates. There are six regional maps showing the birding locations in each region, along with over 70 maps of individual locations. More than 100 outstanding color photos of key birds are included. Montana is the fourth largest state with less than 1 million residents, offering great uncrowded birding opportunities. With two national parks (Glacier and Yellowstone), thirteen national wildlife refuges, hundreds of wildlife management areas, as well as state parks and 40 Montana Important Bird Areas (IBAs) Montana is a must place for incredible bird and wildlife watching.

Short listed for the Green Earth book award In early April, as Owen and his sister search the hickories, oaks, and dogwoods for returning birds, a huge group of birds leaves the misty mountain slopes of the Yucatan peninsula for the 600-mile flight across the Gulf of Mexico to their summer nesting grounds. One of them is a Cerulean warbler. He will lose more than half his body weight even if the journey goes well. Aloft over the vast ocean, the birds encourage each other with squeaky chirps that say, “We are still alive. We can do this.” Owen’s family watches televised reports of a great storm over the Gulf of Mexico, fearing what it may mean for migrating songbirds. In alternating spreads, we wait and hope with Owen, then struggle through the storm with the warbler. This moving story with its hopeful ending appeals to us to preserve the things we love. The backmatter includes a North American bird migration map, birding information for kids, and guidance for how native plantings can transform yards into bird and wildlife habitat.
