5 out of 5 stars Good Compact Magazine...   September 20, 2009
Ambergris (New England.....USA)

Bird Watchers Digest is in my opinion a must have magazine for anyone that has any interest in birds. From the backyard feeder to the world traveler observer, BWD has enough content in all areas to satisfy anyones particular interest, on any level. There is even a regular section in each issue dedicated to back yard birding. It isn't a magazine that is at all snobby and considers back yard novices peasants. On the other hand, it is also a very technical and educational periodical for those that are advanced enough to actually take advantage of the many world wide travel suggestions and deals that are offered throughout the book. I first picked up some BWD back issues on Ebay and enjoyed it enough to order a regular subscription. I was particularly impressed by its compact size, similar to Readers Digest. It can be easily carried along in a purse or bag for traveling, and of course it makes a perfect addition to your bathroom library. The only caution that I would suggest to anyone that decides to buy a subscription is to pass on the offer of the digest newsletter that you can subscribe too for every other month that BWD isn't offered. At $16 a for 6 issues it is not worth it at all. Its a very thin, (about 10 pages) pamphlet style publication that has as many ads in it as helpful info. Its a rip off in all honesty. I let my own subscription to it lapse after the first year. You are much better off subscribing to the BWD email that is sent out periodically that is free, and loaded with article highlights and helpful info. Overall I highly recommend BWD for all bird enthusiasts on all levels. I think you will find yourself looking forward to each and every issue...

I am disappointed because I ordered the magazine on March 12 and will not receive it til June 6. If I had known ahead of time that it would take this long I would have ordered the magazine thru another vendor. Totally disappointed.

4 out of 5 stars a bit like a chickadee   December 21, 2008

With the size and appearance of a slimmed-down READER'S DIGEST, the less famous BIRD WATCHER'S DIGEST is a chirpy little optimist of a magazine not so very different from, say, a black-capped chickadee.

Short and moderate-sized articles cover specific species, how-to/techniques, choosing the right birding equipment, and joy-of-birding anecdotes.

Advertisements abound but do not overwhelm. Some are quite helpful.

BWD is a perky standard for birders both casual and serious.

This magazine is just ok, so so, I've been getting it about a year now, it usually has something interesting in it,but not everything ,but there are some issues that are very good, and each article is very interesting, so it is sporadic as to how good each issue is.Some excellant, some just ok.
