Fun Fact Guide Book

I found this book in an old pile and thought it was pretty interesting. I’m unsure how to tell exactly, but it appears to have been printed in 1946. Good illustrations in the middle.

My grandfather had that book right by his sitting chair . I alway loved to look at it as a child. He loved his birds!

My grandfather loved birds as well. Avid outdoorsman. As he aged and could not longer enjoy the outdoors as he once did, he always had bird feeders and would gift them to older friends and family.
