Book Review - Britain's Birds - an ID Guide Hume Swash Tipling et al

Hi-

I'm not  a big fan of Photo Field Guides but this ID guide is the best I've ever seen! ( Ok I know 2 of the team behind it so sue me) It's too large to carry as a field guide but is a great reference book for ANY British Birder;

It's similar in layout to the Crossley guide and uses Digitally created plates with the birds to scale and claims to cover most plumages;

The text is bang up to date - check out the Wren page ;

The maps take a bit of getting used to ( The Redstart map still has me puzzled)

One small gripe-  is that REALLY the best photo of a Dusky Warbler they could find??

Definitely worth the money IMHO
