Reviews for Birds of New York Field Guide

[ghr4 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This is a perfect field guide for New York birders. As it includes only those birds seen in New York, it eliminates the often tedious identification process of sifting through the entire continent's population found in the more voluminous North American guides. The book is pocket-sized, organized by each bird's prominent color for quick identification, and includes large, clear photos rather than drawings. There is an extensive introductory section, and informative, detailed notes for each species. Of particular mention is the very useful "compare" feature for each entry, which helps distinguish between look-alikes. This book is part of Stan Tekiela's State Field Guide Series. While the series does not cover all 50 states, American birders would be wise to check out the series to see if their state is included. Indispensable.
