Bird Books!

[Bird_Lover_17]

Hello! So I wanted to write an article about this, butI realized this doesn't fit into a section!

In this thread, please type up your opinions/ratings on books about birds:

These can be about:
*Raising Birds
*Wild Birds
*Fictional Stories that relate to birds

I will add to the thread too!

This is a great idea for a thread!

The 2020 ABA standard of perfection
5 stars (imho)
This is a great book for those who breed bantams to the standard of perfection, I personally prefer this as a reference to the APA standard because it differentiates the kind of bird I breed from another similar breed, whereas the APA standard morphs the two breeds into one... If that makes sense. It also focuses on only bantams (duh)
And has actual photos for reference instead of paintings. This is my personal opinion of course, but if you show and breed bantams I strongly recommend this book.

How to Speak Chicken
By Melissa Caughey

-I like this book because it opens your eyes to how amazing something as common as a chicken is. It's an easy read, but still, very fun! It's not really about raising chickens, but again, such an awesome book!

Birdology by Sy Montgomery and Hawksmaid by Kathryn Lasky are both good! Oh, and The Goose Girl, it has geese
