Sibley's Backyard Birds: Eastern North America Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Featuring the top 100 bird species in eastern and western North America, these high-quality, illustrated posters include a selection of beautifully rendered paintings designed to highlight the intricate details of each bird. Both male and female birds are represented in relative scale, offering birdwatchers the opportunity to view the most common birds at a glance and giving an accurate impression of the differences in sizes. To aid in identification, birds are arranged by type—from blackbirds to woodpeckers to songbirds, and beyond. Using the foothills of the Rocky Mountains as the dividing line for east and west, these essential guides can be used for easy identification of backyard birds in North America. These meticulously detailed posters make remarkable additions to any birder’s reference collection.

I used a poster frame to put this up so my grandniece and I can search for the birds we see. The images are clear and simple, beautifully done. Love having it on my wall and have identified several birds I could not find quickly in my books.
This poster is exactly what I was looking for. I just moved into a new house and there is an abundance of birds I've never seen before. The chart is perfect. The illustrations are beautiful. The only problem was when I ordered it, it arrived smashed - so that was a bummer, but the exchange process was really easy and I had a replacement poster in 2 days or so, which arrived packaged appropriately. So yay.
Everyone enjoys this chart which is displayed on our fridge close to the window with multi bird feeders. This purchase was a gift for our son who helped us find a squirrel-proof bird feeder several years ago. Now we see many more of the birds on the chart at our feeders.
This is a very nice poster. I framed it and hung it in my greenhouse so it's handy when I spot a bird I want to identify. Nice size and colors.
This is a great reference chart for casual birdwatchers. We put this in a white poster frame and hung it right near where we watch birds. Have used it many, many times, and still do. The illustrations are colorful and detailed. You can see the relative size of the birds as they made them proportionate. Helps us identify birds, and they fit quite a few on the poster. It is region specific too, so very relevant to what we see.
Within weeks, I have probably tripled the number of birds I can now recognize. Doesn't show all birds in NA and if you are a knowledgeable birder the poster won't make much sense... We keep it in the room opening up to the garden. Even just as poster it sets a nice tone...
Looks lovely in a frame. There is an eastern and western version of this poster. Some of the commenters were complaining that they got the wrong version. I received the Western version, which is what I ordered, and I love it.
Like other reviewer I've read, I took this poster directly to Michael's and had it framed (boy,it was expensive). I consider it worth the expense as the poster is lovely and and informative. I especially like that the comparative size of the birds is shown. It's a quick and convenient for a newish birder like me.
