About This Book

A practical illustrated field guide that enables identification of North American birds by combining systematic order keys with a color-based key and numerous plates and drawings. It explains how to learn bird names without specimens, describes measurement conventions and abbreviations, offers color illustrations emphasizing field-visible markings, provides systematic tables and bibliographical appendices including nomenclatural changes, and supplies guidance on collecting and preserving specimens, nests, and eggs for scientific study. Arrangement facilitates locating species by order, color pattern, or systematic listing, and the plates are scaled to aid recognition at a distance.
