 Best of the best for birding November 16, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I chose the Sibley guide from other excellent field guides principally because of the notes accompanying each drawing. These notes are short text indicators of distinguishing features of a given bird with a line connecting the note to the feature being emphasized in the drawing. Of course, the general descriptions and "range maps" are an essential part of the guide.
