A clever, humorous gift that's perfect for any birdwatching obsessive, The Birding Dictionary is a “dictionary” filled with hilarious and informative definitions for more than 200 birding terms, plus over 50 witty full‑color illustrations, by acclaimed science communicator and cartoonist Rosemary Mosco. Terms range from bird species, anatomy, and behaviors to the insider birdwatching jargon that all birders know and speak fluently, from "alpha code" to "zygodactyl." With equal parts quirky humor, accessible science, and small, impulse giftability, The Birding Dictionary is the latest in Workman’s legendary “pocket dictionary” series, which includes Golfing, Skiing, Sailing, and others, with a whopping 2.5 million copies in print.
