Book Reviews of The Sibley Field Guide to Birds of Western North America
Book Review: Great Birding Field Guide
Summary: 5 Stars
I have the Sibley Field Guide to Birds of Eastern North America as well and I have to say that these are fantastic field guides for identifying birds in the wild. The illustrations are superb and each description includes a characterization of the call of said bird. The only downside is that if you have absolutely no experience with birds, you may have some trouble finding the species within the book. They are organized in a taxonomic manner, meaning that all the warblers are together, all the hummingbirds are together, etc. But a quick flip through the book should give you an idea of where you should start looking.
