HI ALL:
One idea came to my question about bird books and how they mostly
reinvent the birding wheel. The idea was to have a field guide that
actually shows the birds as birder seem them in the field. Not the nice
portraits in standard guide but in situations like parts hidden from view
by vegetation, bad weather, sleeping birds, etc. I like the idea. How many
field guide out there show you how to tell sleeping western and clark's
grebe apart, can you? Any comments?
