Take your identification skills to the next level, 9 Jun 1999

By A Customer

This is a GREAT book that takes you beyond the basics and the common field marks in field guides. It has chapters on optics, seasonal birding, gulls, warblers and shorebirds, etc.

Years of experience are condensed into simple approaches to identification and topics like identifying shorebirds by their habitat choice and behavior or identifying all warblers by their head and face patterns only, a great help on our recent warbler migrationt trip.

I can't recommend this book highly enough if you want to get to the next level of birding. It's also very well written with lots of anecdotes and examples.
