Hawks from Every Angle: How to Identify Raptors in FlightIdentifying hawks in flight is a tricky business. Across North America, tens of thousands of people gather every spring and fall at more than one thousand known hawk migration sites from New Jersey's Cape May to California's Golden Gate. Yet, as many discover, a standard field guide, with its emphasis on plumage, is often of little help in identifying those raptors soaring, gliding, or flapping far, far away.

Identifying hawks in flight is a tricky business. Across North America, tens of thousands of people gather every spring and fall at more than one thousand known hawk migration sites--from New Jersey's Cape May to California's Golden Gate. Yet, as many discover, a standard field guide, with its emphasis on plumage, is often of little help in identifying those raptors soaring, gliding, or flapping far, far away.

Hawks from Every Angle takes hawk identification to new heights. It offers a fresh approach that literally looks at the birds from every angle, compares and contrasts deceptively similar species, and provides the pictures (and words) needed for identification in the field. Jerry Liguori pinpoints innovative, field-tested identification traits for each species from the various angles that they are seen.

Featuring 339 striking color photos on 68 color plates and 32 black & white photos, Hawks from Every Angle is unique in presenting a host of meticulously crafted pictures for each of the 19 species it covers in detail--the species most common to migration sites throughout the United States and Canada. All aspects of raptor identification are discussed, including plumage, shape, and flight style traits.

For all birders who follow hawk migration and have found themselves wondering if the raptor in the sky matches the one in the guide, Hawks from Every Angle--distilling an expert's years of experience for the first time into a comprehensive array of truly useful photos and other pointers for each species--is quite simply a must.

toasty and fluffy!
Color: Pumpkin, Size: 50" x 60"
This blanket is pretty thin so I do not know how many washes it will take before falling apart but considering the price, I am going in with lower expectations from the get go so I'm not going to fret about it. That said, it is very fluffy and feels silky and luxurious. It's also pretty toasty considering how thin it is. It's 100% polyester so I guess that's to be expected. No regrets! I really like it! I'm also a sucker for Halloween so I am enjoying the design too which I admit is the reason I bought it.

Nice but a little small and thin
Color: Red, Size: 50" x 60"
Love this to decorate the bed for Valentine's Day but wish they made a larger size and a little thicker. The print is ok but could be clearer, but we still like it for its intended use.

A beautiful bright throw, well worth the price
Color: Pumpkin, Size: 50" x 60"
Beautiful throw blanket! I love the bold fall colors in it, it is super soft and looks just as good after washing and drying it (on low heat). My pets love it too!
