sbcobirding
This website was created as a resource for everything birding in Santa Barbara County. The goal is
simply to promote the activity of field birding in the county and to provide information to interested
birders. If you have comments about this website or would like more information about local birding,
please contact me.
This page hosts the most recent update of Paul Lehman’s, The Birds of Santa Barbara County, California (June 2020)
Regarding the e-Book Version
The e-Book version contains all chapters of the book. Its Epub format should be viewable by software that is freely
available for most e-Readers, such as iPhones and iPads (using iBooks), Android devices, the B&N Nooks, et cetera.
Amazon's Kindle does not support the Epub format, so the file is not typically readable on those without a third-party
file conversion utility. On small screen devices this e-Book is much easier to read than the pdf version as the font size is
adjustable, while the automatic word wrapping makes it all fit on your narrow screen.
To get the iBooks app on your iPhone/iPod/iPad: go to to the App Store, search for "ibooks", and download it. Then, if you
select the Epub file in Safari or Mail, your iPhone/iPod/iPad will automatically suggest that you add it to your iBooks
Library. Visit Google Play to download any number of Epub readers for Android devices. Several Epub readers are also
available for Microsoft PC’s running the Windows OS.
