Perhaps that's because the Traveler's Guide to Wildlife in Minnesota is beautiful as well as useful to novice and veteran wildlife watchers alike. The guide features 120 special places to find wildlife around Minnesota, with colorful photos, easy to read maps, and useful information about each site.
Many people take a copy to the cabin, but the guide is just as useful at home or in the city.
Bird listers and species specialists will appreciate information about when and where to find 12 featured species or categories of species such as loons, migrating warblers, moose, northern winter owls and migrant hawks, Henderson said. The guide as a whole provides an interesting overview of the beauty and diversity of Minnesota's landscape and natural resources. A portion of the proceeds from book sales goes to support the DNR Nongame Wildlife Program.
