Texas Waterfowl

In this beautifully illustrated guide, two practicing wildlife biologists describe the life histories of forty-five species of ducks, geese, and swans that occur in Texas. For common species and those that breed in the state, each account begins with an interesting fact and provides information on Texas distribution and harvest, population status, diet, range and habitats, reproduction, and appearance.
