Delight in the diverse avifauna of the Sierra Nevadas with this eagerly awaited field guide.


Identify and explore over two hundred and fifty birds of the Sierra Nevada, ranging from the tiniest hummingbirds to majestic condors with nine-foot wingspans. Discover the diversity of lower-elevation wrens, the rasping nutcrackers of the High Sierra, and the urban House Sparrows to the wild water-loving American Dippers. Hansens Field Guide to the Birds of the Sierra Nevada showcases the sixteen-year project of artist-naturalist Keith Hansen, who has meticulously illustrated the birds of this region. Paired with stunningly detailed portraits, the text is enriched with decades of birding expertise, offering a delightful blend of whimsy, allusion, and affection.


Meet the Bufflehead, a diminutive and endearing diving duck that moves with spirited abandon. Admire the scrappy and antagonistic Merlin, ruling the winter skies, tormenting eagles, hawks, and vultures with its dominance. The White-tailed Kite exudes an angelic poise, with a streamlined body and impeccable tailoring. The Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, with its distinctive black eye-to-eye brow, resembles a Frida Kahlo-like stare. This book serves as a valuable field guide companion to Birds of the Sierra Nevada: Their Natural History, Status, and Distribution, also coauthored by Edward C. Beedy and illustrated by Keith Hansen (University of California Press, 2013).
