Review: A Guide on a 'Rounded Out' Approach to Birding - This is an excellent field guide, with a more 'rounded out' approach to birdwatching. The authors, Kevin Karlson (one of the nicest men I have met) and Dale Rosselet (whom I have not met) emphasize how to rnore carefully observe birds in the field, noting their shape and other physical characteristics before getting to plumage distinctions (which is how most birders identify what they are seeing). This is 'birding by impression', which is how we often recognize family and friends before they are close enough to clearly see - shape, structure, height, and gait (or with birds - flight pattern). I am trying to put this in practice in my field work now, and it is slowly beginning to help as I linger with my views longer whenever possible, and 'get to know them' better. Combined with typical field identification, I believe this will help expand my own skills. The writing is excellent and the quizzes throughout are helpful in applying techniques emphasized in the text. Strongly recommended for birders of any level.
Review: Exceptional comparison guide for birding - I found some similar species incredibly difficult to separate in many books; but the Peterson book's comparison photos make it easier to break down the similarities with it's group and comparison photos. There is a lot of great informative text; but I would have liked a bit larger and clearer photos, so some of the species differences were more obvious.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I think this is the birding book to own
*by M***M on December 28, 2015*

I did my birding homework and decided that this was the new book to purchase for my SIL. As it turns out, she and her husband are scheduled to attend a lecture/seminar on this very topic by these very authors when they go on their next vacation. This book made a wonderful present although I can't tell you much about it because I never had a chance to pre-read it. I am giving serious consideration to buying another for another SIL (other side of the family) because just the samples I read and the reaction from the recipient have increased my positive impression.
