What you see in a Guide is exactly what you see in nature. You don't have to translate black-and-white sketches into the colors of the real thing or flip through the book to match text with art. Each bird, tree, snake, and shell is captured in full color with descriptive text right there on the facing page. So you can identify a specimen or a species quickly, easily, positively. That's why enthusiastic amateurs as well as exacting professionals swear by Golden---finest in the field!. 20090729. Birds North America Identification. Birds. Birds. Alaska. Alaska.
