Excellent birding guide, love that for beginners each bird is categorized by color. If the male or female has different colors, the entry tells you where to find the the other color of the gender. Has a nice little check list in the back as well. Just all round handy and great!

Handy little book that arranges birds found in Kentucky by color and then by size for easy identification. Easy enough for my kids to intuitively pick up and use as well.

Excellent field guide for all levels of birders. Organized utilizing a simple color based system, it relates the pertinent facts on virtually each species found in the commonwealth. Also includes photos of both male and female of each species, an invaluable feature.
