Recensioner i media

"The text overall is excellent—reflecting Ted Floyd’s roots as a birder and a bird writer. It is highly readable, uses as few scientific terms as possible without losing meaning, and is often fun to read. . . . The text is also meticulously cross-referenced, meaning that if a species is compared to another species, the page number of that bird’s description is given. This is a level of detail I seldom see in field guides." — Donna Lynn Schulman, 10,000 Birds

    Boken är full av ny och uppdaterad information om områdets fågelfauna. Dessutom har den bra tips för besökande fågelskådare och som extra krydda finns flera av de senaste taxonomiska rönen förklarade på ett lättförståeligt sätt. En utmärkt fältguide!
