### ⭐ 







  
  
    Terrible field guide
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2016*

Terrible field guide.  Not in taxonomic order.  Really not rhyme or reason for where to find a species.  I left the book in the hotel room in Istanbul.  No helpful pictures.  Wound up using Wikipedia for images of bird species.  It was more about birds habitats, behavior etc than showing what a bird looks like.  Pictures of some species not included or only one image of bird.  Yellow-legged gull vs Caspian gull.  No pictures of either.  Don't waste your time or money on this book

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Looking forward to using it
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2018*

Beautiful illustrations and informative text. Looking forward to using it on a Scandinavian cruise.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A good introduction
  

*by N***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 7, 2011*

I bought the book for a 4-year-old, thinking it would provide a good introduction in the years to come. He is so delighted with it that he asks us to tell him the names of the birds while leafing through the book. The pictures are clear and there is enough information to interest a novice bird-watcher.
