Sibley depicts and annotates 810 species and 350 regional populations, showing their stages, forms, shapes, colors, and markings. He describes each species' call and provides full-color range maps showing migrations routes as well as summer, winter, and breeding locations. Sibley spent over 10 years creating this incredible identification guide, illustrating all of the birds himself. Birders may want to keep a copy of Sibley at home as a reference, but the wealth of information will have the same effect on novices as trying to pick out a single sandpiper in a wheeling flock of thousands. The familiar yellow warbler, for instance, gets no less than nine individual illustrations documenting its geographic, seasonal, and sex variations--plus another eight smaller illustrations showing it in flight. All of us at The Nature Store agree that this book is a definite must for anyone who uses a bird field guide. 544 pages; flexibound, 6 x 9.5 inches.
