What is A Photographic guide to North American raptors about?
"Whether soaring or perched, diurnal birds of prey are difficult to identify. They vary in plumage, according to age, race, color morph, or even individual differences. This, along with the difficulties of field conditions - fleeting glimpses, poor light and extreme range - have combined to make correct, positive field ID the realm of the expert birder." "But now help is at hand for the average birder. Field marks do exist that are definitive for all raptor species, despite plumage variability. Moreover these marks can be seen quickly under most viewing conditions. In this book two of North America's most experienced raptor identification experts provide the essential guide to these field marks, as well as, showing the range of plumage variation."--Jacket
