great for non-twitchers ... - By: A. Reader, 21 Aug 2008 
Brilliant book, with just enough info for anyone who has a general interestin that little bird over there with the interesting call. Good clear pics that are actually photos & not some artist's impression (always puts me off).
this is my second copy. first copy got left on a hillin scotland somewhere ...
Excellent book - By: Mez, 06 May 2008 
Lovely pictures, facts up to date & very useful, fitsin pocket nicely.
My only gripe is that there is no information regarding the birds eggs perhaps this is intentional to help stop egg collectors pilfering nests? but it would have been hard to cram any more information into the book.
It gets my 5 stars!

Essential - By: Antonio Moncayo, 03 Aug 2007 
This nice little pocket guide is essential for everyone who is beginning to observe birds .It contains all the species that one is likely to findin the British Isles .
Identification of birds is made easy by comparing the birds with the most similar species & highlighting the differences.
This guide will fit into any small back pack & will resist the past of time very well .
Reasonably priced & of a very nice size this guide & a pair of binoculars is all you need to start bird watching.
Find birds you never knew existed! - By: Dl Jones, 30 Jul 2007 
Having been discharged from hospital & told to take it easy was forced to slow down & start walking instead of jogging.
I kept on finding birdsin the countryside that I had vague memories of from childhood but was unsure of what I was seeing.
I bought this book & a small set of binoculars & found it very helpful. The photos & text within are first class. I have become a bit of an anorak as a result of this book & often end up sittingin peace & quiet watching birds & attempting to identify them!!
I would highly recommend it.
