Excellent for birds of this number one birder's park,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Field Guide to Birds of the Big Bend (Texas Field Guide Series) (Paperback)
There is none better! This book, in a sense, is a classic! It includes all the birds known at publishing for Big Bend National Park. It includes details about the status and where and when they can best be found. It includes consididerable details on all the key park birds, such as Colima Warbler, Lucifer and Blue-throated Hummingbirds, Varied Bunting, Zone-tailed Hawk, and many more. It is a must have for anyone spending time finding birds in the park.

Field Guide Misleading,
By Stephanie Stilson (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Field Guide to Birds of the Big Bend (Texas Field Guide Series) (Paperback)
The title, "A Field Guide to Birds of the Big Bend" is extremely misleading. I purchased this book as a guide for my first bird watching trip to Big Bend National Park. With 'field guide' in the title, I expected the book to assist me with identifying birds found in the Big Bend area. There are few pictures in the book and all of them are black and white sketches. This book is not useful for identifying birds and therefore does not fit the common definition of 'field guide' used by resources common to every birder such as the Peterson and Audubon field guides. I was extremely disappointed and returned the book.

Great Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Field Guide to Birds of the Big Bend (Texas Field Guide Series) (Paperback)
Mr. Wauer has lived most of his life in Texas. He was the chief naturalist for big Bend National BPark, where even today he is called on for advice. He is extrememly knowledgeable of the birds of Big Bend. While it is not, maybe, technicially, a field guide, it deals with the enviroment of the birds. Some of the Texas birds are difficult to differentate, and the books makes it easier to tell apart.
