Excellent field guide and I use it often. I was one of the rural watchers involved in the creation of the Alberta Bird Atlas in the early 1990s, so consider myself an experienced bird watcher. Of course it is a field guide for Alberta birds so don't use it out of province. Other field guides, because of the number of birds from out of the area, fell apart very quickly in the field.

This is a decent book on birds for beginners. The authors discuss similar species together, avoiding technical descriptions and emphasizing those field marks that are most helpful in distinguishing closely-related species. This is not a comprehensive field guide, as it includes only the most common species of the region (although a complete checklist is included in the back of the book). The illustrations are large and clear, and the species descriptions are interesting and easy to read. Not all species described in the text are illustrated though, so as you gain more experience it would probably be helpful to supplement this book with a more complete field guide. However, even then, I can still see this as being the first book to turn to in most situations.… (lisätietoja)

A fantastic resource. Large, full colour pictures make it easy to identify both common and rare birds in Alberta.
