The Shorebird Guide

The seminar I went to this afternoon was done by one of the authors of a new guide to shorebird identification,
The Shorebird Guide. I liked both the concept and the photos that he showed from the book. The premise is to learn not the identifying feathers and markings, but rather the overall shapes and relative sizes.

Because I'm really trying to get my bird identification where I can do it more reliably, I went ahead and bought this book. I'll post more when I have a chance to study it.
