Good Morning ,
I freqently leave one or other field guide in the tea rooms at various places of
work where non-birders often pick them up and try to ID birds they have seen.
Morcombe's presentation with notes adjacent to the pictures has excited more
interest in a couple of weeks than either Slater or Knight. By highlighting the
relevant identification features without having to read them in the text it
makes using the book much easier. Works of art the pictures are not, but if
they could correct the colour problems I suspect that this book, or at least
this style of presentation might become the most popular with the average casual
birder.
Cheers
Michael
