Field Guide to Birds, Western Region (National Audubon Society®)

National Audubon Society® guides feature full-color glossy photographs that arrange animals by similar appearance rather than by strict family grouping. This system is particularly useful when identifying birds in the field, where several unrelated species may share similar markings. Virtually every bird found in North America is brought to life in this guide, with textual information on each bird's voice, nesting habits, habitat, range, and interesting behaviors. The book includes range maps; overhead flight silhouettes; and sections on bird-watching, accidental species, and endangered birds. The Western edition covers states west of the Rocky Mountains.
