(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Backyard Bird Identification Guide (T.F.H. Wild Bird Series) (Paperback)

This is a good book for the novice birdwatcher, like myself. It shows the most common birds in color photographs along with info on each. A great starter book for wild bird lovers.

3.0 out of 5 stars Partial Backyard Bird Identification, May 30, 2007

P. Borgstadt "baseballnut" (Arkansas) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Backyard Bird Identification Guide (T.F.H. Wild Bird Series) (Paperback)

It is a nice book but did not contain exactly what I was looking for - until you actually have it in your hands, there is no way to know. I am not sorry I bought it but this information was contained in other books I have.

Pictures are great, but there are so many other books out there with better information.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very handy
I'm really happy with my choice of this book. It helps a lot especially since I'm new to "watching" the birds in my yard.

1.0 out of 5 stars awful
I was not at all pleased with this book, there were way more words than pictures. I was pleased however that Amazon processed my return with no questions asked and very promply.
