Hi all ;
A quick question from a novice birder. I have just recently become
interested in birdwatching and backyard bird feeding and am enjoying it
immensely. In the two bird guides I have purchased, the size listing for the
various birds is listed as 8",10", etc. Does this refer to the wingspan or
head to tail length.

Thanks ,,,Gary
