Perfect size for throwing in my bag when we go hiking。 Well organized by color making it easy to quickly identify a bird。 In addition to the name of the bird there are fun facts about each bird listed。 Also includes a beautiful picture of each species。

This is my first Field Guide, so this review might be way off。 From reading a few infectious bird books in the past year or so and putting out a bird feeder in past seasons, I’ve decided birding is a habit worth getting into。 But, you need a good field guide to have any chance at being even a “bad” birder。 There were a number of options in my local bookstore。 This one is small, compact, and sturdy。 And it was one of the few that was centered on a smallish area (the entire state)。 A national bird This is my first Field Guide, so this review might be way off。 From reading a few infectious bird books in the past year or so and putting out a bird feeder in past seasons, I’ve decided birding is a habit worth getting into。 But, you need a good field guide to have any chance at being even a “bad” birder。 There were a number of options in my local bookstore。 This one is small, compact, and sturdy。 And it was one of the few that was centered on a smallish area (the entire state)。 A national birding book is too vast for me。 There is a companion cd of bird songs。 I think that will come next。 The book references what track on the cd you can find a particular bird’s song。 Each bird gets two pages。 The left page is a very well done photo of the live bird in question, with maybe a picture-in-a-picture of the other sex, or when it’s a juvenile, or when it’s out of season。。。 very helpful。 The right page has written descriptions of things particular to the bird。 Of particular interest to me right now is the season and location the bird in question can be found。 So far, I suck at identifying birds。 But, I still go out with this lovely little field guide in hand and try to improve my luck。 This weekend I’m buying “bins” (what birders call binoculars) and with a possible continuation of fair weather, I have great hopes for my learning curve。 。。。more

Just a decent reference guide for my desk。 I like how the photographs are juxtaposed with the text and vital statistics。 That's real handy。 Photos are great。 Just a decent reference guide for my desk。 I like how the photographs are juxtaposed with the text and vital statistics。 That's real handy。 Photos are great。 。。。more

This is an excellent guide book! We recently got a bird feeder, so I wanted to be able to quickly learn about our little visitors。 The book is pocket-sized, so it fits in our end table。 It is organized by feather color, which makes it easy to find what you're looking for。 Each entry has a colored photo and basic information。 There is also a good index, complete with check boxes so you can keep track of the birds you have seen。 This is an excellent guide book!

Phenomenal find! Lists birds by color not by body shape which makes it perfect for beginners and kids。 We probably own 6 bird field guides but this is the one that gets pulled out again and again。

The perfect field guide for a beginning Pennsylvania birder like myself! Other North American bird guides overwhelmed me as I found myself constantly identifying a bird from my backyard, only to later realize that the bird is only found on the West Coast or somewhere else outside of the state。 This book only contains birds that are actually found in Pennyslvania and each 2 page spread features a close-up color photo of both male and female and helpful tidbits for identifying your birds。 Particul The perfect field guide for a beginning Pennsylvania birder like myself!
