[Sarah Ehinger · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book has fewer images of birds, but does a good job of providing more information regarding identification, habits, nest, voice, and range than other similar guides.

Audubon Water Bird Guide: Water, Game, and Large Land Birds, Eastern and Central North America, from Southern Texas to Central Greenland by Richard Hooper Pough (Doubleday 1951) (598.2). This book is just what it says. You've never seen so many kinds of ducks in your life! My rating: 7/10, finished 1981.
