 Birder fro June 29, 2008
My beloved from Florida is a amateur ornithologist. We have wonderful birds come to our back yard feeder. This lovely book has helped him identify our Pennsylvania birds, and I mightily thank the author for such a thorough review. Helene B. Leonetti, MD

7 out of 7 found this review helpful
The pictures are wonderful! I have a bird feeder outside my window and have seen many birds that I didn't recognize. The pictures are perfect! I now know what type they are. Other bird books have either drawings or the pictures aren't very clear, or show a terrible likeness...with these pictures I know exactly what I'm looking at! And the information about them is very interesting.
