Considered by many to be the "bible" on North American birds, David Allen Sibley's book presents scientific information on 810 species of birds. If you're looking for a detailed book to help you ID birds, this is it.
Sibley, a reknowned artist, provides all 6,600 watercolor illustrations in the book, making it a wonder for the eyes. Birds are shown in various states of plummage, from regional colorations to first-year and adult markings. Detailed maps indicate breeding, winter and migratory grounds.
It's a large paperback, but sturdily bound, so you may take it into the field or leave it at home for follow-up reference.
An amazing accomplishment, this book took Sibley 10 years to produce. It's a "must-have" for any birder. |
