Crossley ID Guide Raptors

Part of the revolutionary Crossley ID Guide series, this is the first raptor guide with lifelike scenes composed from multiple photographs – scenes that allow you to identify raptors just as the experts do.

Experienced birders use the most easily observed and consistent characteristics, size, shape, behavior, probability, and general color patterns. The book’s 101 scenes, including thirty-five double-page layouts provide a complete picture of how these features are all related. Even the effects of lighting and other real-world conditions are illustrated and explained.

Detailed and succinct accounts from two of North America’s foremost raptor experts, Jerry Liguori and Brian Sullivan, stress the key identification features. This complete picture allows everyone from beginner to expert to understand and enjoy what he or she sees in the field. The mystique of bird identification is eliminated, allowing even novice birders to identify raptors quickly and simply.
