“All descriptions are brief, as usual for such books, but Ms. Erickson brings serious writing skills to all of the text here. Most bird ID text is totally business. Ms. Erickson gives us small images of bird personality as well as physical features. She writes with style, describing in a few well-chosen words germain descriptions of habitat, behavior, and song as well as appearance.”Jim Williams (Star Tribune - Wingnut Blog)
