simple bird book |
|
We were looking for a concise, easy to use bird book, and this one works fine. I would have preferred drawings of the birds, but the pictures in here are good. the quick identification guide at the front covers most of the birds that come to our feeder, the remainder of the pages cover pretty much everything we see while hiking/driving/etc |

Stokes Field Guide to Birds |
|
After going to the beach and not knowing what a lot of the bird were called, then getting a reference from someone there to get this book. I'm glad that I did. My son earned a silver star by learning about quite a few birds that are listed in this book. I highly recommend this book. |

A pretty good bird book. |
|
This book has good images and descriptions but lacks something that Roger Tory Peterson has. It also has something Peterson lacks so I enjoy using both. My wife and I live on seven acres of Maryland farm-land and enjoy many birds that are described well in one book or the other, so we use both. The best part of the Stokes book is the CD of bird calls that goes with it. We have identified a couple birds that we wouldn't have been able to do without it. |

Best bird book for the backyard birder |
This book packs more information on one page than any bird book that I own. It is easy to use and you know immediately if the bird is generally seen in your area by checking the map. I've given the book away on a number of occasions to new birders and experienced, alike.

a swell field guide |
|
We have half a dozen bird books on the shelf but Stokes is the field guide that is being tossed in the bag or kayak for bird identification. |
