An update to A.B.William's 1950 publication, this guide features natural history occurrance information for all of the birds recorded in the Cleveland region in the past 50 years. This guide is the culmanation of reports that were collected through the publishing of The Cleveland Bird Calendar, the quarterly bird report journal published by the Kirtland Bird Club.

Includes occurrance graphs, late and early record dates for each species, a photo salon of rare and accidental birds (such as Ivory Gull, Painted Redstart, Rock Wren, etc.).

Illustrations do NOT accompany each species account, yet they are dramatically sprinkled throughout the text. These full-color illustrations were contributed by Kevin Metcalf and Jennifer Brumfield. Cover illustration (to the left) by Jennifer Brumfield, copyright 2005-2006.
