For those who find birds more bothersome than beautiful, this field guide offers a much-needed perspective. It delves into the less-than-charming aspects of the avian world, identifying and dissecting the qualities that make certain birds truly the worst.
This isn't your typical nature book. It presents a humorous, albeit profane, look at fifty of the most objectionable birds. Each entry details their most irritating traits, supported by the author's unique scientific scale of awfulness and accompanied by vibrant, full-color illustrations.
Discover why birds like the Cruddy Turdstone and the Blank Staring-Eyes Flycrapper are highlighted as particularly egregious examples. The book provides insights into their calls, migratory patterns, and markings, all presented with a sharp wit.
Authored by Matt Kracht, a national bestselling author known for his previous works on the subject, this guide is a USA Today Bestseller and has been recognized as one of the Midwest Indie Bestsellers. It's an entertaining and educational read, perfect as a Gift Book for anyone with a sense of humor about nature's less-loved creatures.
