I have only received one issue of Wildbird but am happy that I have subscribed. As a beginning birder, I need all the help that I can get and I am unwilling purchase an experienced birder (do they even sell those at Amazon?). br / br /This magazine is well laid out and provides a plethora of fun, and interesting, facts about the birds between its covers. I look forward to the next issue.

Really enjoyed this mag---and it arrived just in time for Christmas. My sister, Louisa really loves it!! I am so happy-she's really gotten into birdwatching. I've seen her read and re-read the mag. Can hardly wait for the next one. Kate

I just received my first magazine and I like it very much. Great pictures which are a big help for me to match with the birds I see in my backyard. I watch birds for the fun and pleasure it gives me, but I like to know a little about what I am seeing and this magazine will be a big help to me.

I don't know what distinguishes WILDBIRD from other periodicals about the subject, perhaps it is a `bird-of-the-month' approach, but I do find the articles and photographs, columns and "departments" interesting and informative. For example, the May/June issue of WB is promoted as the `15th Annual Hummingbird Issue' and includes a somewhat lengthy essay, "Beginner's Guide to Hummingbird ID by Sherri Williamson, co-founder of the SE Arizona Bird Observatory. Another article is entitled, "Hummingbird Helpers: How you can contribute to the study and aid of Hummingbirds". The latter is by Wildbird Advisory Board member Peter Strangel who coordinates bird conservation efforts for the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation in Atlanta, and who writes a recurring column for WB. A Hummingbird photo-essay by Ralph Paonessa is also included, as well as articles on backyard birds and birds in South America about - you guessed it - Hummingbirds. br / br /WB displays a keen interest in photography, sponsoring an annual photography contest and includes regular columns on conservation, as well as an `Ornithology 101', and other recurring useful topics.
