Reviews

A new field guide introduces a new series of regional handbooks on local birds. With more than 900 species of birds occurring in North America, the novice or casual birder can be overwhelmed by a standard field guide when trying to identify a new bird. Regional, and particularly state-specific, guides are often the best introduction to the fun of watching and identifying birds for newcomers to the avocation of birding. California os one of the continent's bird-rich hotspots, with the added attraction of being a premier vacation destination, and National Geographic has made a wise choice to spotlight this state in launching their series. It covers the 150 most easily spotted of the state's birds. All are presented on a two-page spread, with a clear photograph of the bird facing a page of bulleted facts. These identification aids include the common and scientific names of the bird, its field marks, a statewide range map, behavioral notes, locations where the bird is most easily found, and field notes that provide extra information. This affordable introduction will be very useful for beginners and tourists. Nancy Bent
