{"product_id":"9781585440962","title":"Birds of the Texas Panhandle","description":"The vast, open plains of the Texas Panhandle appear   deceptively void of bird life, but subtle regional   variations provide a rich array of avifauna. Of the   approximately six hundred species of birds sighted in   Texas, more than two-thirds have been confirmed in the   Texas Panhandle.\u003cp\u003e          The wooded waterways of the eastern Panhandle attract   such eastern nesting species as the red-headed woodpecker   and Carolina chickadee. The terrain of the High Plains and   its scattered rainwater lakes provide a winter habitat for   a variety of migrating waterfowl. Canyons etched deeply   into the otherwise flat land create sheltered places where   the Western scrub-jay and bushtit thrive and breed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e      For each of the more than four hundred species found in   this region, author Kenneth D. Seyffert provides   information on the bird's status, occurrence, and   nesting habits. Ten elegant line drawings also accompany   the text.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e      \u003ci\u003eBirds of the Texas Panhandle\u003c\/i\u003e is a must for those already   familiar with the avifauna of the Panhandle and an   eye-opener for those skeptical of the abundance of bird   life in the region. Residents of the Panhandle will find   this a handy reference to places where they can view their   winged neighbors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKenneth D.
