    Great seller! The Kansas City, MO Post Office took about 11 days to get the package from "accepted at facility" to "in transit," but the seller was helpful when I contacted them about it. I would do business with them again. Paperback book was in great condition when it arrived! Great price too.

    Perfect For Quick Identifications

    This is a handy small pocket guide to have along when you’re first beginning to identify the birds you see. I began birding with my Grandson last year and along with a good set of binoculars and a small portable camp stool, it was great having this little companion book. I have a larger complete National Geographic Encyclopedia of birds are home which is great and all inclusive but far too impractical to lug around. This little book suites the purpose.
