Book excerpt: The perfect journal for keen daily observation of the spectacular birds all around you Many birding journals are geared around a life list, which requires traveling far and wide to see rare birds.

This one-of-a-kind journal, filled with detailed sections for daily use, is the ideal companion for local and backyard birders. The Slow Birding Journal features: Space for recording your observations of the birds you see Targeted prompts and questions to incorporate into your birding Advice and guidance on watching birds: what to look for and pay attention to Detailed illustrations of several well-known birds, and blank pages to make your own illustrations The best birding is where you are right now: in your backyard, your local parks, or on your favorite day hikes. This journal will lead you to a deeper understanding of the birds you see each day.
