Description
Ken Kitson’s Birds of Bucks County, published in 1998, became the definitive guide for local birdwatchers, detailing species, seasonal occurrences, and birding locations while incorporating history and conservation efforts. Recognizing the need for an update due to changes in bird populations, habitat, and the rise of citizen science, a dedicated group of authors and birders began revising the book in 2019. This new, expanded edition covers 369 species and nearly 70 birding sites, offering detailed maps, accessibility notes, and a comprehensive look at Bucks County’s public open spaces.
Spiral Bound. 358 Glossy Pages.
