Water birds fill the third volume: the Canada goose, the great northern loon, the wood duck and the marsh-dwelling rails Audubon knew from the swamps and shores. Each life history rings with firsthand observation and adventure. The master of American ornithology at full stride. Follow the birds of the water with the artist who chased them.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
