"I was pleased with this book about birds. It is a very thorough book. More of the encyclopedia type of study book. It did not have any colored pictures. I was looking for and prefer a book more condusive to 'look up quick" pages as I watch birds from my kitchen window. The price was very reasonable from Albris Books. Wonderful reference book."
"I've "read" this in the sense that it has been a frequent reference over the years as well as a textbook for my ornithology class. I have not read it cover-to-cover.
Essential for anyone interested in North American birds."
"If you are any kind of birder and are more interested in a bird other than simple identification, this is an excellent book. It's compact, yet goes into detail about bird identification - detailing habitat, feeding habits, and reproduction - including such details as what type of nest, where, how many babies, who broods, and how many days from hatching to fledging for every North American species. A great behavior book, and on every opposite page it includes in depth essays on a variety of subjects from nest parasitism to noteworthy biologists. I use this in sync with Sibley's Guide almost every time. Highly recommend."
