5 out of 5 stars Handy Reference   October 5, 2008
Illustrations are very accurate and have helped me identify specific species I have photographed. Great reference tool for nature lovers and photographers. Easy to use format makes finding information easy.


5 out of 5 stars Making Sense   June 5, 2008
Organization is the key to this excellent field guide. Butterflies are difficult to see clearly. This guide allows the observer to quickly get into the proper grouping or order, which is necessary before individual markings or behaviors can be noted. Good for anyone, I think this guide will be especially helpful for beginning butterfly watchers.

No, question, the best field guide to North American Butterflies on the market today. One can never have enough field guides, but this one should be at the top of your list!

Although it is thick and a hefty 392 pages, I take it along on our rv jaunts around the states. My wife is a big Petersons guide to birds fan so our binoculars are always on the ready. The illustrations are quality. I'd been using Petersons Butterflies but now only refer to this. For the money it's a good buy and good reference.

Unless you want it real fast, buy it here on Amazon for the best price.
