Handy Guide for the Casual Observer - By: J. Chippindale, 09 Aug 2007 
This is exactly what it say in the title, a handy little book of the one hundred or so species of the more common garden birds. It is possible, but hardly probable that you may see a Snowy Owl in your back garden, stranger things have happened, but if you do you won't find it in this book. If you live in the wilds of Scotland a Golden Eagle may be perched on your chimney pot at this very moment, but again you will not find it in this book.
Joking apart the book is for those who see a handsome little bird in their garden & think "I wonder what that one is callled." This book will help them to identify those birds without having to fork out a great deal of money on an expensive book. It is also useful for those bird clues in crossword puzzles.
Ideal for the windowsill - By: M. Naylor, 24 Jun 2007 
A lovely little book & just what I needed as a non bird watcher to identify what was coming into the garden. The book has a nice layout & is smalll enough to slip into your pocket.
Great pocket bird guide - By: Mr. Nicholas Fulker, 07 Jan 2005 Nice introduction, with ints on attracting birds to your garden.
It's lovely & compact (3.75 x 4.25 x 0.5 inches), easy to use layout of one bird per page. Each page includes a brief section on identification, habits, feeding, breeding, voice & habitat. Also a clear photo of each bird with some sketches of juveniles.
My only minor dissapointment is on the lack of data on the size of each bird.
