This is a very useful book for birders who want to be able to identify hummingbirds in the U.S. It includes photos and accompanying text for every hummingbird that you are likely (or lucky enough) to spot within U.S. borders. The text is particularly good, and the photos are shown large enough to be of use to the beginner/intermediate birdwatcher in addition to the experienced observer.

I love hummingbirds. I found this book most useful for helping me identify many of the different species of hummingbirds when I went down to photograph and videotape 14 different types south of Tucson. The book has valuable information, brilliant close-up photos and more valuable insights into these birds, habitats and much more. There are many on the market but if you want one for identification and more too this is in my top 3.

This book was a Christmas gift, and the recipient loves it. If only there were some hummingbirds to identify. But he did recognize some of the birds from last year.

This book is marvelous for identifying humingbirds at any stage and has comparison guides for separating similar species. The pictures are excellent

Excellent description of birds, their sounds and flight characteristics. For true birders an excellent book. For a back yard take pictures guy, I wish it had more about feeders,feeding them, flowers they like and attracting them.

i love the pictures in this book.........large and colorful.......the book itself is informative...........we keep it right next to our binoculars.......

I'm now able to correctly identiful many species of Hummingbirds. Great source of information. Very detailed book.

Um livro bastante técnico, exelente para biólogos e/ou ornitólogos.As informações são muito completas principalmente no que se refere às variações de plumagens que ocorrem dentro das mesmas espécies( machos, fêmeas e filhotes).Exelentes informações sobre a distribuição geográfica das espécies.
