With nine years of experience using it and birding with beginning birders, I would like to update that opinion. This is, in a way, no surprise since it was designed by birders who have used their own experiences in the field to determine what warbler seekers really need. This is a guide for all birders.

GISS—general impression, size, shape—is intuitive, the result of an unconscious cognitive process derived from experience in the field. Once I got past the scientific explanations and simply accepted that BBI is an approach worth trying, I found plenty of substantive content in Birding by Impression.

The archipelago consists of 17,000 islands stretching out over 2500 miles along the Equator with a varied history of avian research and study, most on the under- or not-studied side. I like the pages where a new family is shown facing the other way, like page 91, where the nightjars face right and the rails face left. Species Accounts.

Written in the tradition of the classic Hawks in Flight , but very much a product of the experiences of its birder authors, this is a groundbreaking book that offers a new way of identifying migratory birds at sea to all of us who observe the waters of eastern North America with expectation and excitement.

Its organization and content is unorthodox in several ways, which I think is exciting; new approaches to field guides give birders opportunities to rethink how we identify birds and a good excuse to buy yet another field guide. Each family group begins with a small box summarizing the characteristics of the family in Australia.
