## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Make sure you know what a shorebird is before you order.
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2017*

This is good for what it is but I didn't really realize that shorebirds refer to a certain group of birds. I use the term generically, but "shorebirds" to an ornithologist is only a subset of birds that you see at the shore. So for example, you will not find pelicans or egrets or seagulls or ducks in this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A good starting point
  

*by B***. on Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2012*

Pros:-Very small and easy to carry. Paperback, about the size of an open wallet, and only about 1/4 of an inch thick-Intuitive organization, grouping birds into a few main shape categories and narrowing them down from there. Can help narrow your ID choices down significantly-Very nice migration maps. Show both spring and fall migration patterns separately AND provides rough date for when a bird reaches a given point on that migration map. Combined with plumage knowledge, this is a very useful ID toolCons:-Limited detail. For a beginners book, I think this will actually frustrate many shorebird novices without an additional resource. For instance, the peeps can be quite difficult to tell apart and with only about 4 pictures for each bird (one for each plumage), it may not give you enough to appreciate the actual differences being highlighted. Text descriptions of the important ID points are also limited.-Images for one species tend not to have birds of other species in them. When so much of shorebird ID is comparing, it is hard to look at an isolated picture of a Sanderling, for example, and see how they are larger than say, a Semipalmated Sandpiper. Photos with multiple birds would be useful to use as teaching pointsMy overall opinion is that this is a nice guide, but definitely needs something to supplement it. I greatly recommend 

  
The Shorebird Guide









  
  
    
  . This book may have the opposite problem: being too wordy. With the combination of the two, you have something to really learn from at home and an nice small guide to jog your memory in the field.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great for the beginner
  

*by L***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2020*

Highly recommend this for the beginner shorebird watcher, with very clear identification pointers. More of a quick reference guide, it fits in your back pocket, so you're not lugging the larger, heavier books around. You can identify and make notes for later cross-referencing with a more complete guide.
