How to Look at a Bird: Open Your Eyes to the Joy of Watching and Knowing Birds by Clare Walker Leslie

3.0

I'm not a new birder, but I found this guide for new birders underwhelming. The organization is so haphazard it's hard for me to see how it would be useful for anyone. There are a lot of random and sometimes incomplete basic facts about birds, then deep dives into more advanced things like the parts of a bird. The cover artwork is what made me pick this book up, but inside I found the art overwhelming at times, especially since so much of it is sketchy and unfinished.

Your experience my differ, but I won't be adding this to my birding bookshelf.
