What species are in the Eastern and Western bird guides?
Changes to official bird names since 2000
The Sibley Field Guides to Birds East and West were both published in April 2003. They use the same artwork from the original Sibley Guide to Birds. These employ a different design, with each page divided into top and bottom halves, and the species info fit into that space. No changes were made to the artwork, but fewer illustrations are used in these smaller books. The text was largely rewritten. The largest differences being that the voice descriptions are simplified, and a sentence or two was added to each species describing the general status and habitat. Finally, the maps were completely revised for these books, using a team of over 100 experts from around the continent, compiled by Paul Lehman.



Nebraska, do I buy Eastern or Western bird book?
Hello. I suppose this would be more of a suggestion than a comment. I would be very pleased to see your products released on the Android platform. I have always enjoyed your guides but rarely have one with me when I am out and about. My cel phone however is usually with me. I would definitely appreciate having the info readily at hand. Thanks again for a great
