Comprehensive guide to 150+ European bird species with side-by-side comparisons and habitat-based organization for quick, accurate identification, authenticated by RSPB. Review: Great purchase for a amateur bird watcher - A lovely, informative book with colourful illustrations. Review: Simple & straightforward - Handy enough to fit in your daypack and detailed enough to keep you amused as you walk and see loads of birds that you've always wanted to know more about. The aficionados reckon it doesn't contain enough about Britain's most common birds - well, if they are as common as all and you see them all the time, why do you need to identify them and find out more about them?? My son in law is delighted with the book as it makes the perfect accompaniment to his long walks in out of the way places ... where there are perhaps far fewer of Britain's more commons birds!!! 😜 And a lot more that aren't that common!

For a quick reference when you photograph a bird
Ideal little pocket book with great illustrations of the birds and information about them. I bought this to help with my identity of the most common UK birds that I would come into contact with and hopefully photograph when out and about. Rather than trawl the internet this book is ideal to find and get I’d of the birds with little hassle from the keyboard experts online. For the price it’s a great little addition to my camera bag.

Simple, clear and basic
Just what I needed. Simple and basic, nice pocket size. I found my RSPB Children's Guide to Birdwatching too complicated for me (even though I'm getting on!).

A practical pocket book. It is fun to identify birds in our garden with this book. Really enjoyable in every way. Very happy I bought it for my wife as a small present. If you want to give someone who likes birds a small present, they'll enjoy this book.
