Description
Welcome to a new approach to identifying the Raptors of North America.
Standard field guides include photos or drawings but these static methods of portraying birds do not depict their actual behavior or habitat. Bob Hamblin’s Raptor ID Videos show raptors in their natural surroundings and engaged in natural behavior.
All species accounts include live action video, range maps and professionally recorded narratives that describe field marks, behavior and habitat. Audio recordings of songs and calls are included for many birds.
Watching Bob’s videos is a proven way to sharpen your birding skills. It’s like being in the field with your binoculars on the bird and a naturalist at your side.
All of the information in our videos has received extensive ornithological review, most notably by Paul Lehman, the former editor of the American Birding Association’s (ABA) Birding magazine.
This book features 44 species of North American Raptors. The video for each species averages 1 minute 30 seconds in length. The total run time is 66 minutes 11 seconds. The species list includes:
