Hi Everyone,

Hope I can post this here. I was cruising B & N today and came across this book. I think it is new, I've never seen it before and I'm in B & N all the time.

Once I opened it I couldn't put it down. Any of you that love to photo birds or just view them will love this book.. it is amazing and gorgeous.
As good as the Peterson Field Guides are, this book isn't just a guide, it is something you want to show off.

The pictures are awesome. It covers birds from head to toe (and complete anatomy) describing everything about birds in a very interesting way. Things I was amazed to read and I'm just getting started. It is like the "Atlas" of bird books. Photos, drawings, descriptions.. awesome.

It is a huge book - 12" x 10" x 1.5". Coffee Table size. Heavy and thick. 500 plus pages of facts and beautiful photos. Unlike any bird book I have ever seen.

It's pricey but once you see it you will probably buy it, I did, without a thought. The big stores have specials prices and B & N had it on a special display all by itself.

Check it out. Do a Google and you will find tons of info from different sites and bookstores.

    Is this really HarryB's book? And isn't David Burnie the lead singer for the Talking Heads? No worries...I know the answer is no and no. Thanks for the post.
