I can find lots of information on the internet about birds, which is great, (but scattered and confusing). I'm looking to build a small "bird book library," about everything from avian diseases to building aviaries. My searches on amazon/ebay aren't very helpful, the copyright dates of the books I find range from 2008 to the 1930s and everywhere in between! I would appreciate people posting any bird books you own that you've found helpful about ANYTHING bird.
Also, because I'm a very visual person, it would be great if you could tell whether the books have good color pictures or not. I like books with good pictures.
I so far have purchased one book, "How to care for your pet bird" by Dr. Joel Murphy, and it is very good because the doctor tried hard to communicate to a non-technical ADD person such as myself. However, most pictures are black and white and I have trouble paying attention. This book has great coverage on bird disease.
