| David A. Sibley. The Sibley Guide to Birds.
Random House & A&C Black. 2000. 544 pages. The best field guide
for use in North America. Large format, with vertical
arrangement - plates on top and minimal text below. Some text
around the plates next to Peterson pointers. Layout not as
user-friendly as the left to right format of Morcombe's similar
but more informative new Aus guide. Plates very good to
excellent.

Brewer's appendix!)
