Jon L. DunnField Guide to the Birds of North America 7th edition (National Geographic Field Guide to the Birds of North America)

Bought to replace my misplaced old copy. This new one is so much better. Quick find tabs cut into the pages are a great help. Lots of vagrants added not sure if that is help or hindrance. A must for anyone interested in North American birds.

Perfect bird illustrations - ideal for ID birds - actually its first time i can say someone who wrote ( illustrated ) the bird guide- knew what they doing!And I have plenty guides. ( over 20 ) this one is created for quick search and id.Pity no European version ( yet )

Bought this book after returning from a recent trip to the Florida Keys and Everglades. I am quite a keen wildlife photographer and came back with dozens of images of the abundant wild birds to be seen in Florida. I wish I had had this book with me on the trip. It has, however, proved invaluable back home to identify and confirm identification of the many birds I photographed.A very well produced guide with full descriptions and images of the birds found in all parts of the USA. Similar in layout to the Collins guide found in the UK. Recommended for any bird watcher heading to the states.

Many North American guides are divided into east and west or peeps and warblers but this guide has the lot including accidental occurrences. The illustrations are mostly good, many are excellent. A strength of this book is the description of a great many sub species with their ranges, which is a great help. One improvement would be to include more breeding and migration dates.

Grab this book and go birding! Easy to use and has been used loads!

Could have been 5 stars, but the text next to the pictures are very small. Info about the birds are easy to read.

Superb!

Probably the best you can get. You don't need anything else
