This is a great book for those who want a bit more information on birds in Georgia. Illustrations include male and female, morph stages. Each species provides information with basic species description, ID, size, resident status (common, uncommon, rare), habitat, nesting, feeding, voice, similar species and best Georgia birding sites. A color coded map provides range with resident status. Dual index is by scientific and common names.

I have a good collection of birding books and find Birds of Georgia so far to have a more complete listing of species. I've not been using it long but so far have not found anything I am looking for not listed. Some of the information may be a bit dated - i.e. Evening Grosbeaks are listed as regular migrants, rare to casual - and I have not seen one sine the late 90's, but I'd rather have the Evening Grosbeak listed than not.

If you only purchase one Georgia bird guide, in my opinion this one is the best. If you are like me and have a reference library of bird books, you'll still find yourself pulling Birds of Georgia out first when looking for information on a bird you just saw.

This is an outstanding bird book for those of us who live in Georgia. It is well written and filled with glorious pictures of each bird. I highly recommend it.

Written by one of my current Professors at Georgia Southern University....great book! Lots of pictures and very informative. Easy to find the bird you're looking for....highly recommended!

Wonderful book, gave to my husband for Christmas. Now he is bird watching. really nice book and the pictures are really nice.

This book was given to me by the author, who was also my advisor for my M.S. at Georgia Southern University. I love the book, and am planning on giving it to my father for Father's Day.
