Friends in the Meadow - Birds is a simple introduction to the hobby of bird watching or "birding" for young people. The book helps young people to learn about what birds like and dislike and the struggles these little creatures encounter as they live on this earth. It also helps parents introduce their children to birds and nature in general as they read or otherwise help their children learn about the hobby through birding activities. The hobby of birding can be as simple as watching birds through a window or as involved as providing many feeders and nest boxes in the back yard. The family can even become "citizen scientists" by joining groups identified in the book. These groups gather bird data from back yard birders across the country and use the information in research to learn about the well being of our earth and the well being of the birds. The hobby can grow into a lifestyle that is fun, educational, interesting and even exciting. No two days of birding are ever the same! The hobby of bird watching can help children build self-esteem, deepen relationships with parents and others, and is a great educational tool. They learn while having fun! Happy Birding!!
