      These two pocket-size references for bird-watchers, created in conjunction with the American Museum of Natural History, cover 376 (Eastern Region) and 438 (Western Region) species found on the North American continent. These books are grouped into chapters by related birds (e.g., "Ducks/Geese/Swans"; "Owls"), and there is some overlap between the two volumes. Detailed drawings of birds in various positions, as well as photographs of many species, aid in identification. Entries include maps to point out territories as well as icons indicating whether the bird population is stable or declining, and many contain boxed information on voice, nesting, feeding, habitat, and size. VERDICT Great for novice birders, seasoned bird-watchers who need to replace a dog-eared guide, or anyone who wants a handy reference.
