5 out of 5 stars Great local birding book   June 10, 2005
 15 out of 15 found this review helpful

I just recently got hooked on birding, because I've always been intimidated by larger birdbooks, such as those with birds from all of North America. As a beginner with a lot of outdoor experience, I knew all the distinctive, easy to identify birds, but all the perching birds just seemed brown, light brown, dark brown, or basically the exact same as every other perching bird. Because this book only has birds found in the Puget Sound region, you realize its much easier to tell birds apart, because there aren't as many as the larger guides make it seem (although this book is very comprehensive for the region, and has the 200 most common birds). My family has an Audobon bird book I use as a cross-reference, and when I leave the region, but for basic ID, I like the local book better. The pages are few enough I can literally flip through every one until i find the bird I'm looking for - with bigger books, the bird would be long gone before then. All in all, this is a great book for beginning birders in the counties that border Puget Sound.
