Roger Tory Peterson Month

by The Birdfreak Team on August 1, 2008

It’s official, August is Roger Tory Peterson Month! In honor of one of the greatest birders and bird conservationists, we have made this declaration. Not only was Mr. Peterson a great ornithologist, he was a superb photographer, educator, and of course, field guide creator.

This month we will be reviewing several books written or about Roger Tory Peterson including the much anticipated new field guide: Peterson Field Guide to the Birds of North America.

Help us celebrate this birding legend all through August!

How awesome. I’ve always wished I could portray birds so accurately!
