About this product

Product Information

An all-new holistic approach to identifying shorebirds. Join the experts in birding by impression, a revolutionary approach to bird identification. Experienced birders use the most easily observed characteristics -- size, structure, behavior, and general color patterns -- to identify birds even before looking carefully at plumage details. Now birders at all levels can learn how to identify shorebirds quickly and simply. This guide includes more than 870 stunning color photographs, starting with a general impression of the species and progressing to more detailed images of the bird throughout its life cycle. Quiz questions in the captions will engage and challenge all birders and help them benefit from this simplified, commonsense approach to identification.

  • Best resource for shorebird ID

    I scoffed when my (novice) birding friend bought this book, mostly because I can't stand photographic guide books. However, over a period of 2-3 years I kept using it when we would bird the California coast. The photographs capture the species with exceptional accuracy, both in stance and setting, some with comparisons ofsimilar species side by side for helpful comparison. The plumages are probably the best photographic examples I've encountered. You can search Flickr for good photos, or get this book and have them at your finger tips.

  • good description

    This is a very useful book for anyone who is interested in watching and idenifying shorebirds. It has actual photographs of the species in various plumages and ages. They are also show pictures together with other species so it is easy to see the comparison. I have been birding for over 40 years and teach ornithology and this is about the best field to shorebirds I have ever used.

  • Great value for great birding book

    Used book that looks brand new
