Make birdwatching even more rewarding. Stan Tekiela's trusted field guide has helped countless people enjoy nature--and identifying raptors has never been easier.

Learn about 34 species--every type of raptor found in the Midwest! The guide is organized by group: eagles, falcons, hawks, kites, osprey, owls, and vultures. When you see a bird of prey, you can determine its group by common visual characteristics. Then turn to the corresponding section to find out what it is.
This updated second edition features new photographs and range maps, expanded details, and even more of Stan's expert insights. Bring the Birds of Prey of the Midwest Field Guide on your next birding adventure and confidently identify the raptors you encounter across Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.
