- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Purchased in Scotland to replace a very outdated field guide I'd brought with me. This one was excellent, since it included nearly all the birds I could have expected to see, with large, clear images and good explanatory text, and it was small enough to easily fit it into my coat pocket. Recommended.
