Customer Review: The best just got better!
This has always been the reliable and preferred reference for my wife and I. We have worn out two of the paperback version over many years of use. Now, with the revised arrangement of the book it is even easier to use and may cause it to wear out prematurely due to overuse. I might have to buy another so we can both refer to our own copy at the same time.
Customer Review: Field Guide To Western Birds
The book is excellent in most respect. But like all of these types it doesn’t provide much help in actually identifying a bird. You can’t go from “small-brown-stripes on side-purple head-green feet-S. Az area to Pages xxx & xxx for the types. Buy from here…
