Title: Pete Dunne on Bird Watching: The How-To, Where-To, Where-To, and When-To of Birding by Pete Dunne ISBN: 0-395-90686-5 Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Company Pub. Date: 01 March, 2003 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $12.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 5 (3 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Great for beginners
Comment: I have both this book and "Sibley's Birding Basics." I think that Dunne's book is better for the beginner. It is written in a MUCH more engaging style, is not nearly as technical (e.g. in details of bird taxonomy), and has a lot more practical advice.
Rating: 5
Summary: Dunne's Birding World: Don't Buy a Zoom bino!
Comment: This prolific writer on birding delivers again, taking many of his tried and true observations on birding and compiling them into an easy and interesting format. I would recommend this strongly to any birder but certainly beginning birders will profit the most from its insights. Especially good for anyone considering an optics purchase.

Summary: Wonderful for beginners -- buy this before anything else!
Comment: Pete Dunne does a wonderful job introducing the reader to the world of birding. He starts with the basics: field guides and binoculars, and explains how to choose among the various ones out there (there are so many that a beginner can easily become overwhelmed). As a beginner, I know that he saved me a lot of time and money on these two issues alone. Dunne then moves on to more advanced topics, such as basic birding techniques, where to go birding, and birding organizations. Inspirational anecdotes from his experience and other birders are peppered throughout, easing the reader into a specialized field while maintaining that natural curiousity about birds that all of us have.
