Thanks to Houghton Mifflin, I have two copies of the new Peterson Field Guide to Birds of North America to giveaway. There are two ways that you can win a copy:

  1. Tell how Roger Tory Peterson has impacted you as a person or birder. This may have been in person, but it doesn’t have to be. It could be through one of his field guides, something else that he wrote, or anything else (feel free to be creative). Peterson was one of the most influential people of the last century, and his legacy certainly touches every single birder alive today.
  2. Promote this giveaway. I need help getting the word out about this. You can mention it on your blog or website, post in a forum, submit this to a social networking site…pretty much anything. For every method you use, you’ll get one entry toward winning this copy.

How to enter: You may enter via both methods to increase your chances. For either method, you can either send an email to mail@birderslibrary.com, or submit a comment to this post. If entering for the promotion portion, make sure you include a link to your effort(s).

This contest ends on Tuesday, August 19, so make sure all of your entries are submitted before the end of that day.

The fine print: due to the nature of this book, this contest is open to anyone in the US or Canada. Shipping in the US is free. However, depending on the costs, I may need a Canadian winner to chip in some toward shipping costs.

Good luck!!
