I also have The Stokes Guide to the Birds of North America, and believe it to be the creme de la creme of bird guides.

This book by Bill Thompson III, though, is outstanding and a must have because it details the varieties found in the Midwest and is, therefore, not cluttered with information and photographs of birds I am unlikely ever to view from my home here in the High Plains.

Thank you Bird Watcher’s Digest for publishing a terrific gem laced with terrific photographs of every bird, together with outstanding guidance for providing an inviting habitat so I can while away the time marveling at birds choosing to pay me a visit.

not a lot of birds, but beautiful photos, lots of information on nesting details, love the info for each species: how to attract it to your backyard, if it comes to feeders, bird baths, nests in birdhouses and if it is attracted by certain plants, etc. Nice plant guide detailing what kind of habitat it provides for birds (fruit, or shelter, etc.) Nice addition to the “traditional” bird books.

This is an excellent resource, especially for beginning bird-watchers. There is a lot of great information on identifying and attracting midwestern birds. The photos are very good, and the book is well organized.
