Immensely popular since its publication in 2003, this is an excellent field guide with superb illustrations and good descriptions. Range maps, descriptions of calls, birds' eating habits and a lot more are included. Birds are shown in a variety of positions including from underneath—very helpful when trying to identify birds in flight.

Good overlap with Sibley Field Guide to Birds of Eastern North America.
