Birding-aussers:
>I would be the last to admit I'm wrong but the American Birding Association
>publish a quality bimonthly journal called 'Birding',it is unlikely they
>also publish Bird Watcher's Digest.
Patricia is correct--Bird Watcher's Digest is published by Pardson
Corporation out of Marietta, Ohio:
Bird Watcher's Digest
P.O. Box 110
Marietta, Ohio 45750-9977
1-800-879-2473
>< At least two national publications are equivalent: Bird Watcher's
><Digest, published by the American Birding Association (probably the
><nearest equivalent) and Living Bird, published by the Cornell Laboratory of
><Ornithology (check out their web site at www.ornith.cornell.edu).
Bob's suggestions are good ones. Of the two publications he mentions,
Living Bird is the more scholarly, BWD perhaps designed more for the
backyard birdwatcher. This table of contents (from the website) is from
the latest Living Bird:
