  • Top favourable review

    Have been successful at several IDs. Great layout and pictures.

    I've used this to ID birds a few times and have found the process really easy.the pictures are lovely and I enjoy the layout. I can't make comparisons to any other bird ID books though.

  • Fabulous

    If you are a Birdo then this is the book for you. Take it and your viewing device wherever you go. Colour plates make identification easy and maps give an accurate idea of location.

  • Best bird book around

    Great book with clear illustrations making the birds easy to identify and distinguish from others very similar. Better than photo identification.

  • Field Guide to birds of Australia.

    It is an excellent reference for identifying Australian birds. It shows where these birds are found in Australia, and identifies the markings and other important information. Excellent for wildlife artists or bird lovers.

  • Best bird book

    This bird book uses illustrations rather than photos which I feel makes it easier to identify birds.
