About Tulipmane

Birding close to home

Tulipmane Field Guide helps beginners identify familiar birds in neighborhoods and city parks across the contiguous United States and southern Canada. Which birds you can see depends on where and when you look.

From a sighting to an identification

Use the bird index to filter by size, color and setting. Open a species page to compare field marks and similar birds, or read the field guides for help with specific identification questions. Keep track of what you actually saw in Field Notes, even if you are unsure of the species.

Sources, photographs and corrections

Guides link to references for further reading. Species pages highlight a few observable clues and point to fuller species accounts. The index covers a selection of birds. Check a regional resource when you need a more complete list or current information about occurrence.

Photo Credits lists each photograph's creator, source and license. If you spot an error, contact us with the page URL, the detail in question and a supporting reference when available.
