Birds of the Blue Ridge Mountains
A Guide for the Blue Ridge Parkway, Great Smoky Mountains, Shenandoah National Park, and Neighboring Areas
In this detailed guide to the best birding localities, Simpson describes more than three hundred sites, including recreation areas, overlooks, campgrounds, picnic areas, and hiking trails. For each site, he lists the species most likely to be seen as well as rare birds that the persistent birder might find; he includes notes on the plant life and geography of each site and provides information on highway access and accommodations as well as accessibility for the handicapped.
"A book no Blue Ridge birder should be without."
--Transylvania Times
"A landmark work, the result of nearly thirty-five years of birding experience in the Southern Appalachians by the author."
--Bird Book Review
