5.0 out of 5 stars WHAT AN AWESOME AND USEFUL GUIDE!, November 18, 2003
By A Customer
You won't find another guide with ALL of this information so nicely organized and explained. The guidance on where to find the individual species you may have been longing to see but didn't know where to find is wonderful and most welcome. We also like to peruse all the excellent birding sites that the author describes to get ideas of promising bird outings to take. The photos are excellent and show the many species of the region to good advantage. A great guide for birders of all levels!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not what I thought it would be, April 20, 2006
I was disappointed in this book. Most of it is a field guide to the birds that isn't necessary if you own a good field guide already, such as Sibley. I expected more detailed descriptions of the birding sites listed, as I have seen in other guides. The descriptions about birding sites in this book were very basic. This might be helpful for a new birder.
