"Majestic Feathers” has reconnected me with my childhood love of  birds, and it continues to educate me about an ever wider variety of birds. The photography is simply dazzling! Kathleen Cameron completely captures the spirit of these sweet creatures in her lens. Down to the tiniest pinfeathers. The articles are poetically written in such vivid prose and with a contagious passion for bird-watching.  It's a bird-lover's delight!"

There is a lot to like about the Majestic Feathers newsletter. As I read the first few issues, I wondered if this publication might be of interest only to expert birders in the intermountain West, but the wide geographical coverage soon dispelled that question.  Although most of the articles emphasize the western half of the U.S., there is, of course, a lot of information overlap with eastern species.

That aside, I find that the articles in each issue are well written and packed with information that is useful to someone like me - decidedly a novice birder.  I like the mix of excellent art, prose, and photographs (especially the photographs), and the knowledge of the editor and contributors is truly encyclopedic. You read things (e.g., behavioral information that I find fascinating) in this little publication that you just don't see in any of the standard bird books, and therein lies its greatest value. I really hate to see each issue end!

One happy subscriber,

Kathleen Cameron's Majestic Feathers is a well-written and designed newsletter about birding adventures west of the Rockies and beyond. Her writing style and descriptions of nature and the environment are reminiscent of the naturalist, Edwin Way Teale, who wrote the classic "journeys across America" series. If you want to add to your bird knowledge and become a more keen observer of nature, subscribe to this photo illustrated newsletter!
