Call of the Loon (Camp and Cottage)

This is the best book about loons that I have found thus far...the photos are lovely and not typical and there is so much detailed information about everything you would want to know about loons...the style is clear and concise with photos and information in tandem reinforcing what Mr Strong tells of his travels and experiences with loons and others who study them. Photos are all well and good, but when an author is this knowledgable and organized in thought, it is a pleasure to see as well as learn about these unusual birds. You will NOT be disappointed!

Beautiful pictures, but it isn't the comprehensive narrative that I was hoping for. It provides basic information about the loon, but overall is really more of a pretty picture book. I was looking for more in-depth information and discussion of loon behaviors.

Excellent book on cows!

nice book

Lovely, interesting book! It's packed with information, but written in such a comfortable style that it's a pleasure to read. The writing is so clear. Strong has great respect for and love of the loon. I can't say enough about Strong's obvious integrity and appreciation for nature. You will want to own this! The selected reading list in the back gives info for those who would like to read even more. I bought two to give as gifts. (take a look at his "Wild Moose Country" book too!)

livre broché format moyen datant de 1995 traitant des quelques 5 espèces de plongeons; les textes sont assez fouillés sans être vraiment scientifiques et les photos couleur sont absolument splendides, justifiant à elles seules l'acquisition de l'ouvrage pour garnir sa bibliothèque
