The superb plates show birds at rest and in flight, in every plumage variant likely to be encountered in the region.

"..a definitive guide to the 124 species of the northern hemisphere waders" Birdy World (April 2006) "...an excellent resource..." Birdwatch (May 2006) "...the most significant book about waders to come out for some time... this book is a real advance for wader fans everywhere." Birdtours.co.uk (29th August 2006) "...it is an excellent reference publication, and those with a particular interest in shorebirds will certainly want to consider it." Scottish Bird News (September 2006) "...this is a useful addition to wader identification guides and, unlike many 'field' guides, is small and light enough to carry easily in a field bag." The British Ornithologists' Union (2006)
