5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful illustrations and easy to use 20 Mar 2013
By E. Sky Mcilvain - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love a guide that is so well organized that the index is not really needed. And what's not to love about a guide detailing more species of shore visiting sharks than you ever thought possible. We bought it for a St. Simons, GA stay and it was right on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extraordinary Illustrations 10 Jan 2012
By Anne Randolph - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I had the pleasure of watching many of these extraordinary illustrations come to life under the supremely talented hands and eyes of Patrick Lynch. Unlike many illustrators who work solely to get the physical attributes of the subject correct, Patrick Lynch expresses much of the behavior and character of the subjects as they are in real life such as the birds in flight. I have other books from this strong collaboration between an academic expert and his artistc muse. If you haven't seen their textbook Manual of Ornithology and love birds, it's worth seeking out at a library, although you may need to ask for it from a university lending program.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good guide 14 Jun 2013
