my mother in-law brought me this book for my state and I loved it. my daughter lives in kentucky so I got the same one for her. I didn't want to spend a lot of time trying to fiqure out what a bird is when I see it. This book couldn't be easier. you look under the color of the bird you saw and then find the bird. The colors are all indexed. It's a great book for a nonexperienced birdwatcher as myself...

After seeing a bright, predominantly yellow, bird while out fishing one day I knew I had to buy a guide book specifically for Kentucky and I'm so glad I chose this one (it turned out to be a yellow warbler.) I have 6 other bird books and ordered this one to keep at our camper down at Kentucky Lake. It is "hands down" the best book out of all the ones I own and I have some expensive bird books. This is SUPER easy to use and the color coding is ingenious for quick reference and fits handily under my seat in the bass boat. When I got back home after using it I immediately ordered one for my home state of Illinois which I'm eagerly awaiting.

Well laid out ... I have identified tons of birds with this book, not cumbersome and works great...

This book is awesome ! It is super easy to use, very accurate and provides alot of detailed information about the various birds, including terrific photo's that makes it a breeze to identify the bird you are looking for. I would recommend this book to everyone who enjoys watching birds.

This book is great, if only for the photos. But it is also an excellent guide. The birds are arranged by color instead of type, making identification easier for the casual less experienced birdwatcher. Identification tips in the front. Information for each bird includes full page (4.5 x 6 in.) photo, range map, info on ID, nest, egg, incubation, fledgling, migration and food, similar birds and notes.

Love this book. It has color photos of every species. It also describes their habits and lifestyle. We bought it so we could identify the birds coming to our feeders. As a bonus, we now know what birds are local and not coming to our feeders and what we need to do to attract them.

I just started watching the birds since I became disabled a few years ago. I was able to identify some of the birds coming to the feeders, but not all. This book is so easy to use. I love the "color" feature where I can look at the pages for whatever the bird's color is, and find the info and name of the bird. The information given on each type of bird is very good and well written. There is alot of interesting stuff on each type of bird. This book would be good for both the beginner and the pro bird watcher. I just love it!

there was colorful detailed pictures and color codes to help find a bird easier in the book. Small enough to carry in your pocket when walking through the woods or fields.

A good field resource, although the binding is a bit flimsy. The color plates make identifying Kentucky's birds easy.

The book makes it easy to quickly identify birds. The information is short and to the point. That's all that is needed when trying to identify birds in your yard at a quick glance.
