Written in an accessible and authoritative style... As a way of getting yourself familiar with core species it does an excellent job
Matt Merritt, Bird Watching Magazine
-
Good identification text with useful descriptions that don't just repeat over-used cliches... Charlie Elder uses excellent analogies and lively descriptions
Rob Hume, Birdwatch
-
It fills a niche perfectly and it is well produced as well as being well written and illustrated... you might not just learn a little, you might get hooked!
