Book Reviews of A Field Guide to Advanced Birding: Birding Challenges and How to Approach Them (Peterson Field Guides (R))
Book Review: Indispensable for identifying N American birds anywhere
Summary: 5 Stars
This set of identification papers is indispensable for identifying the trickier groups of North American birds - for example: winter loons (divers); dowitchers; jaegers (skuas); screech-owls and Empidonax flycatchers. I carry it on every trip I make to the USA and use it frequently. It should also be very helpful for identifying vagrants to the UK and Europe. This is an equivalent of Sharrocks "Frontiers of Bird Identification". Highly recommended for the avid birder who wants to identify birds inadequately covered by most field guides.
