As a guide, an incredible resource to learn the birds anywhere in Nepal! Been starting a little birding group in Chandragiri (southwestern Kathmandu), and this helped me learn the birds on my own so I could help guide the kids (Age 14-18). The informational section's not too great besides listing different forest types in Nepal, but the recommended treks/bird trips are very interesting! It's evident that this section attempted to be a summary of Inskipp and Sagar Baral's other book, and it would have been better if they had started by asking "what information is most essential for Birders?" instead. Regardless, I use it everyday and am incredibly grateful!
